Pilgrimage of the Patroness - Casares
- 11 May 2018 - 13 May 2018
The festive calendar of Casares starts in May with the celebration of the Pilgrimage of the Patron, Our Lady of Rosario del Campo. During this celebration, the locals and neighbours from nearby towns accompany the Patroness from her chapel in the Plaza de España de Casares to the hermitage located next to the Guadiaro River.
Pilgrims travel the 14 km route on foot, on horses and on floats. The Pilgrimage begins in the San Sebastián chapel, from where the Salve is sung by the Romero de la Hermandad choir and the journey starts with fireworks and ringing bells.
Many of the visitors camp next to the Hermitage for the night, where a verbena, a popular dance, also takes place.
The celebration ends on Sunday with a Mass in the hermitage and the Patron Saint's return to Casares.
