Fiestasantos
Description
The "fiestasantos", the popular name for the patron saint festivities in honour of the saints Bonoso and Maximiano, has been held since the 17th century. On 11 August, the ringing of the "campanica turrón" bell announces its start; a sound repeated at the same time every day to gather children, who collect sweets thrown down from the bell tower. On the 21st, the images of the saints and the urn containing their relics are carried in procession; along the way, brotherhood members, dressed in morning coats, white shirts, red ties and a distinctive two-pointed hat, "cast the flag" of the martyrs (covering the people of Arjona with it for protection).
