Cordoba Information: THE ROUTE OF THE CALIPHS Information: Traditional Feasts and Handicrafts


TRADITIONAL FEASTS
There is a full calendar of feasts along the Route of the Caliphs throughout the year. The Cruces de Mayo are famous in Cordova, and so is Corpus Christi in Granada; and then each village or hamlet has its own feast, such as the original celebration of Cristo del Paño in Moclin, the pilgrimages of Our Lady of the Sierra in Cabra and that of Our Lady of Araceli in Lucena, without forgetting the coliblanco and colinegro processions during Easter Week in Baena, as seen in the illustration.





HANDICRAFTS
The province of Cordova can still boast the highest number of artisans in an age when both workshops ans trades are thast disappering. The quality of cordovan work and pottery was already praised in times os Charlemagne and one is able to find fine examples today. Jewellers are particulary flourishing nowadays in Cordova, with goldsmiths and silversmiths, as well as setters and engravers who produce some very attractive pieces. Variuos villages along the way also have pottery , wood-work and wrought-iron workshops worth having a look at.
