Every seven years, the Ostensions attract thousands of pilgrims to Saint-Junien, including the presentation of the relics of the founding saints of the city. Several religious ceremonies took place during the year of the Ostensions, culminating in a procession in June in the streets of the city. Spectacular and interesting even the profane, the next Ostensions will take place in 2023.
