Procession of the feast of the gods

Jean-Paul Guinnard

Corpus Christi is a major celebration in the canton of Fribourg. Altars are erected throughout the town. A procession begins after mass. The first communicants of the year file past the priest, followed by a band and political authorities. The procession stops at each altar to pray and sing.
