Hermandad de la Amargura, Catholic confraternity in Jaén, Spain.
The Hermandad de la Amargura maintains its canonical headquarters at the Church of San Juan Bautista, featuring neoclassical architectural elements in its structure.
Founded in 1956, the brotherhood gained recognition for its devotion to the Virgin of Amargura, with the image created by sculptor Antonio Castillo Lastrucci.
Members wear white tunics with purple capes and hoods during processions, symbolizing penitence and religious commitment within the Holy Week celebrations.
The brotherhood organizes blood donation campaigns, religious education sessions, and liturgical workshops for altar servers throughout the calendar year.
The annual Besamanos ceremony allows devotees to venerate the Virgin Mary image during specific morning and evening hours at the parish.
