    The most important point in the village of Rocío, which brings together more than a million people during the famous El Rocío Pilgrimage. It is the second largest pilgrimage after Santiago de Compostela.

      Since the middle of the 18th century, pilgrimages (Romerías) have taken place on a large scale in El Rocío. Today, what happens in the town every year during Pentecost can be described as a huge spectacle. And as one of the weirdest religious celebrations on the European continent.

      Around a million (!) pilgrims come to El Rocío from all parts of the country at Pentecost.

      The highlight is the procession that begins on the night of Whit Monday. The almost human-sized, festively decorated Madonna is then carried under a canopy through the surging crowd for around twelve (!) hours.
