Jesus began his journey to Golgotha from the Great Sanhedrin, south of the Altar. Here he was condemned to death because he claimed to be the Messiah.
Very early in the morning, the chief priests, with the elders, the teachers of the law and the whole Sanhedrin, reached a decision. They bound Jesus, led him away and handed him over to Pilate. Mark 15,1
He then passed through the Susa Gate (North of the Altar) and was brought to Pilate in the Pratorium (Via de la Rose). Then he was led out the Sheep Gate (Jn 5,2) by Bethesda and crucified on Golgotha, just outside the Sheep Gate (today the Lion's Gate).

What were the changes in people on the road to golgotha?
The Roman Soldiers took Jesus from Gabbatha (approximately where the Church of Condemnation is located) to Golgotha, just outside of the Sheep Gate (where today the Lion's gate is). This is only 200 meters. For these 200 meters Jesus carried the cross himself. As they went outside the gate, they forced Simon of Cyrene to carry his cross up the steep slope of Golgotha. The slope of Golgotha starts immediately as you exit the gate, as testified to by John: And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha: Joh 19,17 The other three Gospels testify that as Jesus went outside they forced Simon to carry his cross. Therefore John is correct in stating that Jesus carried his cross to Golgotha, for as soon as he went through the gate, he was at the base of Golgotha. There were many different people having very great differences concerning their perspective of Jesus. By far the majority of the people were in unity with the High Priest and wanted that Jesus be crucified. Just minutes before the whole crowd cried out, 'crucify him, crucify him'. Of the twelve, only John walked this road with Jesus to Golgotha, together with some women from Galilee, including his mother and his brothers. For them this must have been very heart breaking. They must have been more than mortified to see him so shamefully crucified. David himself foretold this.
