Grand Procession for 94th Madonna Della Cava Feast [Photo Gallery]

Posted on Author Matt ContiComments(3)

The 94th Madonna Della Cava Feast with the exposition of the image of the Madonna was held this weekend on Hanover and Battery Streets. The image of Maria SS Della Cava, Principal Patron of Pietraperzia, Sicily was rediscovered miraculously in the year 1223 by a mute from Trapani who was directed by Our Lady to proceed to the outskirts of the town where the portrait of Our Lady would be found. In the process, his speech and hearing were restored. The first words emitted by the mute were, “VIVA MARIA SS DELLA CAVA.” Read more at the society’s website, MadonnaDellaCava.com.

Shown below are pictures from Sunday’s 2014 Grand Procession of Madonna Della Cava through the streets of the North End.
