El Rey cumple con la tradición del besapié al Cristo de Medinaceli

In keeping with the centuries-old tradition of the royal family, but as a private act given the religious content, the King attended this Friday, March 1st during Lent, the traditional kissing of the feet of the image of Christ of Medinaceli that is venerated in the church of the same name located in Madrid, a few meters from the Congress of Deputies. It is the third time that Felipe VI has attended this ceremony since his proclamation; he did so in 2018 and also last year, while on other first Fridays in March, the person in charge of maintaining the tradition has been his mother, Queen Sofia, and also, Infanta Elena. In 2004, two months before his wedding, the then prince attended with his fiancée Letizia Ortiz; the current queen, who does not hide her secularism, has not returned to the temple.
