The Brotherhood of the Falifos

Curiosity · Rionegro del Puente, La Carballeda, Zamora

Image of Rionegro del Puente, not of the place itself.

Since the Middle Ages this brotherhood, whose name alludes to the rags of the poor, paid for bridges and hospitals for the pilgrims going to Compostela; it still owns the sanctuary and keeps up the village's hostel.
