Bologna, Italy - May 2009: Each May the citizens of Bologna carry the figure of the Madonna around the city in procession.
The weekend of the 6th Sunday of Easter Bologna’s most important religious festival is held: the image of the Madonna kept in the Santuario di San Luca descends into the city for the blessing in the church of S.
