Semana Santa

A tradition of the Salamanca Semana Santa is called the "Descendimiento de Cristo" (Descent of Christ), held on Good Friday. On Good Friday, all of the city's convents and churches remain open all day- a great opportunity to pop in for a visit!

One of the most unique traditions of Salamanca's Semana Santa is on Holy Thursday with "Los Oficios," a ceremony featuring a mix of the academic and the liturgical.

On the Monday following Easter, called "Lunes de Aguas" (Water Monday), friends and family meet at the river's shores in what is essentially a huge picnic.After the traditionally strict 40 days of Lent and the solemn Semana Santa, Lunes de Aguas is spent relaxing, having fun, and eating "hornazo"- a pastry pie filled with ham, sausage, bacon, cooked egg, and sometimes even chicken.
