San Antón

These images correspond to a very old tradition of welcoming, at the entrance to the town (first in Carchelejo and then in Cárchel), the Brotherhood of Colomera, which is in turn making its way to the Sanctuary of the Virgen de la Cabeza. In the reception itself, a mounted flag-bearer is responsible for opening the ceremony, with the flags subsequently joined together.
Later, the local brotherhood and that of Colomera head together towards the church, where a Salve is sung, an act lasting a few minutes, after which they pass through some of the town's streets on their way to the football pitch.
There, the flags are waved to the delight of the townspeople.
Afterwards, they head towards Cárchel, where the same process is repeated, though in a shorter form.
