Holy Week
Óbidos is still a privileged stage for historical and religious celebrations. Evoking the Passion and Death of Christ, Holy Week attracts to the town thousands of people, Portuguese and foreign, united by culture and devotion.
Records of Holy Week celebrations in Óbidos go back to the 17th century. This event has been one of the main tourist attractions to this historic town since early nineteen hundredths presenting some the most impressive religious ceremonies in Western Portugal. Besides the different religious manifestations (masses and processions), a complete cultural program with children's activities, conferences, exhibitions and concerts also complete the program.
