Cristo del Patrocinio

The celebrations of the Cristo del Patrocinio are held on
14 September, and depending on the years a few days before 14 and
after 14, bullfights are celebrated.
Typically, 13 in the night are held fireworks, "polvora" it said before.
The day of the Cristo (the way that we call here "14th September") a mass is celebrated and in the afternoon the procession through the
streets of the village take place; when they arrive to the Church's gate, the "Puja de las Andas del Trono" takes place, to introduce the Cristo
on shoulder into the Church. At night, there is a dance until dawn.
