Sacramento procissão de Nossa Senhora Da Conceição

Abstract

This monographic work aimed to document the procession of Nossa Senhora da Patron Conceição of Conceição da Feira - Bahia. The research proposal is focused on the field of museological documentation, since it is an essential part of this work proposal. The Procession of Our Lady in Conceição da Feira is a example of the persistence of a living tradition, demonstrating the importance of local culture in the scenario of Brazilian Catholic religious manifestations. The festivities in praise of Our Senhora da Conceição began in the 17th century, in 1675, with the emergence of the Image of Santa on Manuel Araújo Aragão's land. Over time the procession comes undergoing some modifications, such as: the replacement of the traditional image by the rock image, date changes, removal of patrons from communities. Despite these changes, the procession of Nossa Senhora da Conceição, is still today one of the most awaited in the municipality of Conceição da Feira, because it is the realization of the faith of the Catholic people which preserves faith in the Virgin of Conception. Therefore, the present monographic work had with the objective of retrieving and gathering information about this cultural manifestation and leaving it recorded for the future generation.
