Vow of Chanteiro

Activity · Ares, Ferrol, A Coruña

Image of Ares, not of the place itself.

A pilgrimage festival held on Whit Tuesday at the hermitage of Nosa Señora da Mercede: it was born of a vow made by the authorities of the comarca in 1404, when plague was ravaging the area, and it still binds Ares, Mugardos and Ferrol together.
