Art and Festivals

fiestas el bierzoThere are many festivals and celebrations in El Bierzo where culture, tradition and gastronomy are combined: The Magosto is one of the most typical celebrations, which includes roasted chestnuts on fire, wine and sausages. If you like magical moments, we invite you to discover the Magosto. Another berciana tradition is the pig slaughter. The Entroide is a special "carnivalesque parade". The Pendones are also famous. They are descendants of the military medieval banners used by troops in the war of reconquest. The Dances have been an iconic symbol of Fornela for 500 years ago. You should not miss Ponferrada Easter, declared of National Interest Turísitco in 2015, its Templar Night, recreating a fantastic medieval event.
