Rome, Italy - April 2022 - 108 years after the laying of the iron cross on its summit, by the faithful of the Salesian parish of Santa Maria Liberatrice - led by the then parish priest, the future Venerable, Luigi Maria Olivares - last Good Friday, April 15th, finally, after years of mandatory closure due to the pandemic, the Sovrintendenza Capitolina ai Beni Culturali authorized that the faithful of the parishes of the historic center of Rome could return to celebrate the Via Crucis on Monte Testaccio. It, also popularly known as "Monte dei Cocci", is an artificial hill located in the area of the river port of ancient Rome, near the warehouses (horrea) where goods were deposited and transported up the Tiber River to the center of the capital of the Roman Empire. The mount, 54 meters high and with a circumference of about 1 kilometer, is formed by shards (testae) of amphorae used for the transport of goods, which were systematically unloaded and accumulated after being emptied in the nearby river port. In the photo, depicting the last station, at the foot of the historic cross erected by Testaccini, you can clearly see on the ground the shards of Roman amphorae of which the historic Monte Testaccio is composed.
