Website | EmailThis silent procession makes its way through the streets of Amsterdam every March. This procession commemorates the "Miracle of the Host" of 1345, a strange occurrence that involved a dying man vomiting once given the Holy Sacrament and last rites. Though cast into a fire, the host emerged unscathed - thus the celebration of the miracle. The procession follows the Heiligeweg (Holy Way). It begins and ends at Spui, via Kalverstraat, Nieuwendijk, Warmoesstraat and Nes.
