BELLÚS A millennial heritage Small but with a gigantic heritage wealth, with just over 300 inhabitants, Bellús is a municipality that treasures an ancient heritage, dating back to the first temporary occupations of the cave La Petxina between the years 130,000 to 35,000 BC by Christ by part of the Neandertal man. Its festivals, gastronomy, different panoramas, natural places, a World Heritage Site, sport fishing, hiking and climbing are sufficient reasons to visit this beautiful village. We wanted to highlight the Procession of the “Crist de la Bona Mort”, fishing and “l’Estret de les Aigües” as the three main reasons that you have to discover when you visit Bellús, if you have not already done so.
A very unique and colorful procession The “Crist de la Bona Mort” (Christ of the Good Death), co-patron of the town of Bellús, has possibly one of the most unique and genuine processions of the entire Valldalbaidí territory. The feeling and faith of those who accompany Christ in his transfer from the Church of Santa Anna to the hermitage of the village, is mixed with colors, noise and spectacularity. Rocket shooters accompany the pattern of the bellussers throughout the procession, covering the sky with gunpowder and glare.
To finish the show, once Christ arrives at his hermitage, the bellussers fire a castle of fireworks to announce that their copatron is already at home. If you want to be surprised with this particular procession you have to come to Bellús during the patron saint festivities that take place the third week of September, celebrations in which the religious character and the playful come together and bring the whole town out to the Street.
