Via Dolorosa

Simon of Cyrene carries the Cross (Fifth Station of the Cross)

A passerby named Simon, who was from Cyrene, was coming in from the countryside just then, and the soldiers forced him to carry Jesus’ cross. (Simon was the father of Alexander and Rufus.)
Mark 15:21

So they took Jesus away. Carrying the cross by himself, he went to the place called Place of the Skull (in Hebrew,Golgotha). There they nailed him to the cross. Two others were crucified with him, one on either side, with Jesus between them. And Pilate posted a sign over him that read, “Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews.” The place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and the sign was written in Hebrew, Latin, and Greek, so that many people could read it.

John 19:17-20
