Ανάμνησις του Τιμίου Σταυρού του εν ουρανώ των Ιεροσολύμων φανέντος
This is the second apparition of the Holy Cross. It took place in Jerusalem in 346 AD, during the reign of Constantine, son of Constantine the Great, and under the Patriarchate of Saint Cyril.
The memory of Commemoration of the appearance of the honoured Cross over the city of Jerusalem is celebrated every year on May 7. Last feast was on a Wednesday. Next feast in 2026 will be a Thursday on 4 months 3 weeks.
The Commemoration of the appearance of the honoured Cross over the city of Jerusalem Day is not a fasting day per se, but in 2025 the date of May 7 falls within a fasting period.
Take a look at the ephemeris of the day to see other saints and given names celebrated on the same day.
