It may not be worn except in religious solemnities, processions or pilgrimages, or in the presence of the Pope.[1] HistoryThe Signum Sacri Itineris Hierosolymitani was established by Pope Leo XIII on 2 May 1901 to honour and to endorse pilgrimage to the Holy Places of Christianity in Palestine.[1] A certificate from a parish pastor was originally needed attest to the morality of the candidate and affirm that there was a pious motive to undertake the voyage.[1] As of 2015, a certificate is no longer needed.[1] The medal is never sent and can only be conferred at the office of the Custody of the Holy Land in Jerusalem, belonging to the Franciscan order.[1] He presents it in the name of the Sovereign Pontiff.[1] At least one Catholic tour organizer provides it for visitors to Jerusalem, the grade depending upon the number of trips the recipient has made to the city and whether appropriate suggested donations to the Franciscans have been met.[2] InsigniaThe medal is a Jerusalem cross in gold, silver or bronze. The centre of the front is a small depiction of Pope Leo XIII with the surrounding Latin inscription LEO XIII CREAVIT ANNO MCM (Leo XIII created [this medal] in 1900).[1] In the crossbars, there are four biblical scenes showing the early life and the ministry of Jesus with the inscription CHRISTI AMOR CRUCIFIXI TRAXIT NOS (Christ's love attracted us):[1]
In the center of the reverse, there is the image of the risen Christ. The crossbars show four scenes of the Passion with the inscription SIGNUM SACRI ITINERIS HIEROSOL[YMITANI] (Sign of the holy voyage of Jerusalem):[1]
The cross is suspended from a ribbon of red silk with four blue stripes in the middle. On the edges at each side runs a white band broken by a dark yellow bar.[1] See also
