A Holy Year, or Jubilee, is a special period in the calendar of the Catholic Church when the faithful may obtain special indulgences, marked by celebrations, pardons, and visits to holy places. These years, usually celebrated every 25 years but also exceptionally in response to special events, are a time of reconciliation and spiritual renewal, offering believers the opportunity to repent and strengthen their faith.
