A Confraternity in Procession along Calle Génova, Seville by Alfred Dehodencq (1851). Holy Week in the liturgical year is the week immediately before Easter. The earliest allusion to the custom of marking this week as a whole with special observances is to be found in the Apostolical Constitutions (v. 18, 19), dating from the latter half of the 3rd century and 4th century.

The liturgical year, also called the church year, Christian year, ecclesiastical calendar, or kalendar, [1] [2] consists of the cycle of liturgical days and seasons that determines when feast days, including celebrations of saints, are to be observed, and which portions of scripture are to be read.
Holy Week in Guatemala is celebrated with street expressions of faith, called processions, usually organized by a "hermandad". Each procession of Holy Week has processional floats and steps, which are often religious images of the Passion of Christ , or Marian images, although there are exceptions, like the allegorical steps of saints.
