Cappa Magna

Handling a cappa magna is a bit like handling a tent.  It is huge and can be confusing.  It can even take a few people to put together.  The train is the easy part.  It gets tricky with the complicated hood and then shoulder cape.  You have to find this, the inner clasp, to attach around the neck.

  2. There are some beautiful pictures of Raymond Cardinal Burke wearing his scarlet red watered silk Cappa Magna at the Ordination of four priests for the Institute of Christ the King Soverign Priest on August 5, 2014. Cardinal Burke was the principle celebrant at the Solemn High Pontifical Mass of Ordination.
