Early Christians would sometimes visit Jerusalem as pilgrims, to walk in the footsteps of Jesus and reflect upon his passion and death. They would stop along the path to contemplate what happened there, marking the stages of the journey for others to follow. The path that Jesus walked became known as Via Dolorosa – the way of pain. Over time, ‘stations’ were often installed in churches so that people could follow this journey as part of their devotions.
