An opportunity to experience firsthand the atmosphere of a medieval procession
By accompanying the image of Saint Rita, a symbol of peace and forgiveness, you can relive key moments in her life and the society of the time.
It’s not just a procession: it’s a journey that intertwines faith and tradition, brought to life by performances by musicians, flag-wavers, and participants.
Each role has a special meaning: from the Knights, symbols of justice, to the Farmers, who represent the strength of faith.
Wearing a costume will make you feel part of this unique tradition, rich in emotion and spirituality.
The final ceremony, which invites reflection on the values of humility, peace, and faith, makes the parade an unmissable event for those who want to experience history with their hearts.
The Historical Parade usually takes place in mid-May each year.
The fee includes participation and costumes for 4 people.
On dates when the parade is not scheduled, participants can wear medieval costumes and have their photos taken.
