Cruz de Mayo day - Isnate
- 5 May 2018
This traditional festival has been celebrated on the first Saturday of May in Isnate since ancient times. This day commemorates the day of the cross; 5 May.
This very peculiar fiesta has a special meaning for the people of Iznateña. The celebrations also include 'El Día del hornazo', a typical sweet of the Isnateña gastronomy. This delicacy consists of a cake decorated with an egg in the centre. The main ingredients of this cake are: olive oil, flour, anise, matalauva, etc.
In the past, Isnate townsfolk went to the countryside to enjoy a typical dessert, but each person took a different route. For some years now, all the Isnate people and visitors who come to enjoy this festivity gather at the Isnate River to share this and other delicacies and spend a day of leisure with family and friends.
