Three Tombs in Pinell de Brai

The festivities in honor of Saint Anthony have already begun the second month of celebrations of the Three Tombs.

During the winter months, muleteers and their decorated carts and carriages, pulled by horses, mules, and donkeys, take to the streets of dozens of towns throughout Catalonia. For the first time, El Pinell de Brai, a charming little village in the Terra Alta region, will celebrate the first Tres Tombs with the enthusiasm and certainty that this tradition is deeply rooted and its continuity is guaranteed.

The tradition involves a parade of carts and animals, circling the town three times where the festival is held. Over the years, especially after the Industrial Revolution, animals, and particularly horses, have ceased to be the primary agricultural workers, giving way to tractors and other machinery. However, the Tres Tombs celebration keeps this tradition alive and serves as a reminder of the importance of animals in rural life.

Pinell de Brai, with its rural charm and rich history, offers an ideal setting for this festival. Visitors can enjoy a festive atmosphere, with music, dancing, and activities for the whole family. Furthermore, the Terra Alta region is known for its natural beauty, with spectacular landscapes and a rich culinary scene that includes quality wines and traditional dishes.

Don't miss it! Come and enjoy the first Tres Tombs in Pinell de Brai and immerse yourself in a unique experience that combines tradition, culture and nature.
