morada, easter sunday
Prior to the arrival of Spanish settlers in the 1700s, the indigenous Tewa people had a long-established village in this very location.
This church – the Penitente Morada – dates to around 1730 and remains a sacred site for members of the Penitente Brotherhood, a group of Catholics of Spanish descent who dedicate themselves to memorializing the spirit of the penance and the Passion of Christ.
