Historical milestone · Trujillo, Comarca de Trujillo, Cáceres

Spring festival held on Easter Sunday, with origins going back at least to the early 19th century, when residents celebrated the end of winter in the Plaza Mayor. It takes its name from a popular dance, "el Chíviri", danced without pause in the square throughout the day; the festival begins in the early hours between Saturday and Sunday and draws thousands of people.
