Station number 1 on the Vía crucis a la Cruz del Campo - the Way of the Cross. A route with 14 stations describing Jesus’ journey on the day of his crucifixion. The route draws its inspiration from the road of suffering - Via Dolorosa, and the distances between the different stations also try to be faithful to the original route (the distance between the house of Pontius Pilate and the hill of Calvary)
In the first station, the sentence of Jesus is described, death by crucifixion.
Next to the sign are other signs describing the station and were photographed by the same photographer that day
