The origins of the holy water stoups<\/h2>\n

The use of these containers of Holy Water became common in Churches around the XIth century. The word \u201cAcquasantiera\u201d (Holy water stoups) into common use starting from the 1700s and today refers to the stone, marble or alabaster containers found at the entrance of churches for the use of the faithful.<\/p>\n

The adoption of small holy water stoups, also made of ceramic, is a widespread custom among Catholic families. The holy water stoups are affixed to the wall and used to dip the hand in holy water before making the sign of the cross, or simply displayed for decorative purposes.<\/p>\n
