Pilgrimage of the Virgen de Alharilla
Description
Legends passed down from generation to generation tell how an image of the Virgin appeared in a village the Arabs called Alhara, located about 4 kilometres from Porcuna. A hermitage was built there, and a famous pilgrimage has been held every year since the 15th century. It is held on the second Sunday of May, attended by the brotherhoods belonging to the confraternity from the towns of Arjona, Arjonilla, Escañuela and Lopera.
