The flower crosses of San Juan

Curiosity · Chañe, El Carracillo, Segovia

Image of Chañe, not of the place itself.

On the night of 24 June the residents go out into the countryside to gather aromatic flowers with which crosses are made, a custom of agrarian root that in Chañe has survived alongside the Minervas and the Corpus of the altars.
