Festivities of El Rosario and Santa Catalina

The municipality of Hermigua, in La Gomera, celebrates the start of autumn with its traditional ""Domingo de Octubre"" Festivities, dedicated to the Virgin of the Rosary in Vallealto, and the feast of Saint Catherine of Alexandria on the coast. These events combine religious and recreational activities, such as dances and charity markets, with community participation in traditional practices like the ""enramado"" of Saint Catherine’s chapel, a historical site recently restored. The festivities are deeply rooted in local culture and highlight the strong connection between residents and visitors with their religious traditions.
