👍 Experience to be done with respect and attention. The mysteries are an expression of a particular religiosity, which is combined with a strong sense of belonging both corporate (the "classes" who finance the care of the statuary groups and carry them in procession) and citizen. Even without a guide... People often mention church, chiesa,

    (Translated by Google) Experience to be done with respect and attention. The mysteries are an expression of a particular religiosity, which is combined with a strong sense of belonging both corporate (the "classes" who finance the care of the statuary groups and carry them in procession) and citizen. Even without a guide, the route is well illustrated, with signs in several languages. (Original) Esperienza da fare con rispetto ed attenzione. I misteri sono espressione di una religiosità particolare, che si unisce ad un forte senso di appartenenza sia corporativo ( i"ceti" che finanziano la cura dei gruppi statuari e li portano in processione) che cittadino. Anche senza guida il percorso è ben illustrato, con cartelli in più lingue.

    (Translated by Google) I was really fascinated by this small church, a little hidden, if you like, but inside which the mysteries leave you speechless. The figures, marvelous in their colors and features, have remained perfect over the years and over time. Truly masterpieces from which it is difficult to look away .. I very much appreciated the explanations received from a very discreet gentleman who was inside the church. (Original) Sono rimasta davvero affascinata da questa piccola chiesa, un po' nascosta, se vogliamo, ma al cui interno i misteri lasciano a bocca aperta. Le figure, meravigliose nei colori e nelle fattezze, si sono mantenute perfette negli anni e nel tempo.. Veramente dei capolavori da cui è difficile distogliere lo sguardo.. Ho molto gradito le spiegazioni avute da un signore molto discreto che si trovava all'interno della chiesa.

    This church replaced the concept of fresco with sculptures of scenes from the new testament. It is original and well done. Definetly the worth a visit!

    (Translated by Google) A special church with figures that tell the story of suffering (Original) En speciel kirke med figurer som fortæller lidelseshistorie

  • 4/5 Alessandro C. 2 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Church of particular importance because it houses the 20 sculptural groups of the mysteries of Trapani that represent the passion of Christ. On Good Friday and all previous Fridays, various religious activities take place in this church. On Good Friday the procession of the Mysteries leaves the church and develops mainly along the historic center of the city. I highly recommend visiting this church if you are on holiday in Trapani. (Original) Chiesa di particolare importanza perché ospita i 20 gruppi scultorei dei misteri di Trapani che rappresentano la passione di Cristo. Il venerdì Santo e tutti i venerdì precedenti in questa chiesa si svolgono diverse attività religiose. Il venerdì Santo dalla chiesa esce la processione dei Misteri che si sviluppa principalmente lungo il centro storico della città. Consiglio vivamente di visitare questa chiesa se vi trovate in vacanza a Trapani.

    (Translated by Google) It is a very impressive church. A very kind caretaker inside is available to give all the explanations and has a video available, which shows the history and development of the traditional and religious event. (Original) È una chiesa molto suggestiva. Un gentilissimo custode all'interno è disponibile a dare tutte le spiegazioni ed ha a disposizione un video, che mostra la storia e lo svolgimento della manifestazione tradizionale e religiosa.
