Confraternity of San Giacomo Apostolo (abito dei pellegrini)<\/h3>
\n

Levanto<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Many Ligurian confraternities are characterized by the presence of children, especially during processions. They are referred to as \u201cpilgrims,\u201d a distinctive feature particularly of the confraternities of St. James and St. Roch. This is confirmed by the presence of an embroidered scallop shell on the tabarrino. <\/span><\/p>\n

The modern outfit consists of a white cape with a white sash and a black tabarrino, made of velvet or other material, with lace on the collar. <\/span>In the past, the \u201cfemale pilgrims\u201d wore a garland of flowers on their heads, and the pilgrims carried a small staff. <\/span>Even today, the Confraternity of St. James dresses the youngest members in the pilgrim\u2019s outfit for the procession on July 25th, celebrating the Feast of the Saint, and on other solemn occasions.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
