The Holy Week traditions (Semana Santa) in Spain are known for its processions of the brotherhoods or fraternities with origins back in the Middle Age. The membership is usually open to any Catholic person and family tradition is an important element to become a member or "brother" (hermano).
Semana Santa sees its most glamorous celebrations in the region of Andalusia, of which Seville holds some of the most elaborate processions for Holy Week. The nazareno or penitential robe is commonly used by the participants in the processions. This garment consists in a tunic, a hood with conical tip (capirote) used to conceal the face of the wearer, and sometimes a cloak. The exact colors and forms of these robes depend on the particular procession. The robes were widely used in the medieval period for penitents, who could demonstrate their penance while still masking their identity. These nazarenos carry processional candles or rough-hewn wooden crosses, and may walk the city streets barefoot.
