SANTA CRUZ

The month of May is marked in the Argelita calendar by the festival of the Santa Cruz. And it is that the neighbors have been waiting for this festival since the month of January, when with the money raised in the auction held after the festival of San Antonio they begin to organize the day in honor of the Santa Cruz. With this, it is not surprising that this festival has a symbolic and emotional content for the residents of the town, who come in procession to the Calvary of the municipality and later celebrate this day in brotherhood.

L'endemà, la jornada gira al voltant de la subhasta típica, una subhasta que permet recaptar els diners suficients per a contribuir a l'organització de la festa de la Santa Creu al maig
