Religious processions and traditions in Spain

Overview

Various religious festivities and commemorative events have been observed across different regions of Spain. In Dos Hermanas, the annual pilgrimage of the Virgen de Valme toward Cuarto took place, while Córdoba marked the 50th anniversary of the blessing of the Virgen de la Merced with a procession that was shortened due to weather warnings. Additionally, the Archicofradía de la Vera-Cruz scheduled a procession for the Divina Pastora de las Almas in Córdoba.

Further celebrations included the 26th anniversary of the canonical coronation of María Santísima de la Trinidad Coronada in Alhaurín de la Torre, which featured the debut of a new handcrafted gold tissue skirt. In Alba de Tormes, a 19th-century banner from the Hermandad de Santa Teresa was temporarily moved from a museum to participate in a liturgical procession through the streets.
