Easter In Sardinia: Find Your Special Offer!
Easter in Sardinia celebrates the meeting of Pagan and Christian rites, in a fascinating union, full of ritual charm. In fact all Sardinian people call Easter “Pasca Manna”(Big Easter), while Christmas is called Paschixèdda (Little Easter).
Tradition, rites, folklore and Christian liturgy join together in different Sardinian locations. So the Passion of Christ is indissolubly linked to the cycles of peasant activity, always dear to Sardinian people.
The Holy Week liturgies have Spanish origins and maybe even Greek, but, as it often happens in Sardinia, they perfectly integrated with all the mysterious rites which celebrate the earth. The Goccius (or Gosos) are in fact the songs that have accompanied the stages of the Sardinian Holy Week for hundreds of years, handed down from generation to generation, creating incredibly evocative moments.
