A deeply-rooted tradition in the Bierzo region
Festivity of the Magosto
This ancient celebration is closely linked to the practice of gathering chestnuts, a deeply-rooted tradition in the Bierzo region. This collective and festive event stems from a prehistoric ritual of providing an offering of the first chestnuts of the year as thanks to the gods of the forests.
