It is one of the stations of the way of the Cross. In other forms, Jesus fell once (sixth station of the alternative way). For the traditional way, Jesus falls three times.

Station Three: The First Fall
Jesus fell for the first time because of the weight of the Cross. He sooner becomes weaker, that's why Simon of Cyrene will help Him.
