CORPUS CHRISTI IN CARCABUEY

Corpus Christi means 'Body of Christ' in Latin. In Carcabuey, it is celebrated on the Sunday following Corpus Christi Thursday.

Members of each brotherhood, association, or group work to decorate the street assigned to them with multicolored sawdust, forming over a thousand meters of multicolored sawdust carpets that run through the main streets of the municipality where, at sunset, a valuable artistic custodia will process.

For most Carcabuey residents, Corpus Christi means the effort of adults and children, men, women, girls, and boys working together under the warm June sun along the entire procession route. But Corpus Christi also means sharing, after the effort, a delicious miller's breakfast with the best extra virgin olive oil in the area, surrounded by family and friends.

It is a religious festival, but at the same time, it is one of the most beautiful and colorful aesthetic expressions in the region, with a variety of geometric and floral motifs in its sawdust carpets, among hundreds of flower pots and altars erected along the procession route."
