Via Dolorosa

Picture
One of the stations marking the Via Dolorosa
    The "Via Dolorosa" i.e. the Way of Tears" is the traditional way of the Cross that Jesus took toward Calvary.  Although the beginning of the route is not historically accurate (we now know that the Prautorium where Jesus was tried was somewhere else), the ending stations at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre are historical in nature.
