Fair and festivities of Nuestro Padre Jesús Nazareno

Activity · Sisante, La Manchuela Conquense, Cuenca

The fair and festivities of Nuestro Padre Jesús Nazareno, in Sisante, in the Manchuela Conquense, are celebrated from 13 to 17 September in honour of the most venerated image in the village, with processions and popular events. It is a sculpture attributed to Luisa Roldán which, according to tradition, was a papal gift commissioned by King Charles II and which, after the pontiff's death, remained in Sisante, kept in a convent. Tradition dictates that it descends from its niche once every hundred years, and processions are documented in 1819, 1911, 1939, 2000 and 2011.
