Feast of Sant Antoni Abad in Sant Feliu de Codines

Sant Antoni is the patron saint of animals that coexist with man, and also of farmers and muleteers. In Sant Feliu de Codines there is documentation dating back to the celebration of this festival since 1728. The winter Festival is in Sant Feliu on January 17 , the day of Sant Antoni Abat.

The day begins at dawn, with toast with garlic and herring, all seasoned with wine, in the square. At 11 in the morning, the authorities go to the church, where a solemn mass is celebrated and, later, the blessing of the animals, carriages and cavalry takes place in the town square.

Watching the Three Tombs parade is quite a spectacle as the carriages compete among themselves to see which is the best decorated and the most original. The parade takes place in the form of a parade to the houses of the two administrators of the festival, who invite everyone to coca, figs and good wine.

Do not miss it!
