Museums are places of incalculable value. Their walls not only house outstanding heritage, artistic, or cultural exhibits. They also treasure a part of who we are, of our identity, of a particular way of seeing and understanding life.

That, ultimately, is the most valuable heritage housed in this Holy Week Museum of Cieza, the House of all the people of Cieza. Here, not only are images and thrones displayed, but countless dreams and aspirations of the brotherhoods are kept safe from March to April and from April to March, dreams that come true year after year.

Last Friday, our "House of Saints" opened its doors wide to present the exhibition "Conssumatum est": the drama of Christ's Calvary shown through the wise hands of a genius: José Antonio Hernández Navarro.

The brilliant sculptor from Los Ramos offers us a unique perspective on the final moments of the Redeemer's life. But the dramatic nature of the scene does not prevent it from being recreated with a plasticity that envelops the Redeemer's death in an aura of elegance, leaving a glimmer of hope for a near Resurrection.

The Board of Passionate Brotherhoods would like to express its gratitude to the various Brotherhoods whose images made this recreation possible: the Brotherhood of the Most Holy Christ of Forgiveness, the Brotherhood of The Samaritan Woman, the Brotherhood of the Most Holy Christ of Agony, and especially the Brotherhood of the Most Holy Christ of Charity, for their trust in this institution, which will always be grateful.
