Festivities
There are two major festivals in the municipality. The first occurs in the second weekend of September and honours the local saint, Santo Cristo de la Salud. The celebrations include leisure and cultural activities, sports tournaments (notably a football match between single and married), a costume contest, and a community feast.
On the third of May is the local festival, the Day of the Cross. The citizens of the town create a romeria to the cross of Sierra de la Yedra, accompanied by dance and music and concluded with a meal. The Eucharist is celebrated near the iron cross that crowns the mountain range.
