The May Crosses of Almuñécar have become a significant tourist attraction, as noted by a representative from the Provincial Council of Granada. This event provides an excellent opportunity to promote the cultural, historical, and patrimonial richness of the province.
“"Almuñécar is experiencing one of the best long weekends of the year thanks to the involvement of associations, brotherhoods, and sisterhoods to make Almuñécar look spectacular and truly beautiful."
For his part, the local mayor expressed gratitude for the institutional support and highlighted the large number of people who have enjoyed this deeply rooted tradition. The active participation of various entities has been fundamental to the festival's success.
“"It must be highlighted that we have had a total of 26 crosses throughout the municipality, which reaffirms us as a historical tradition in our municipality, where the brotherhoods, the different associations, set up these crosses to cover their expenses for the entire year."
The celebration of the May Crosses not only enhances the cultural heritage of Almuñécar but also contributes significantly to the local economy, allowing brotherhoods and associations to cover their annual expenses through this popular tradition.
