Processions with statues of the Risen Lord were held all over Malta and in Gozo this morning as Easter was celebrated in the traditional Maltese way.
The first processions are believed to have been held at the end of the 16th century in Valletta and Senglea.
The blessing of Easter gifts, especially Easter eggs and figolli also started at about that time and continues to be popular.
Some 25 processions are held in Malta and Gozo.
