Easter week in Puente Genil, declared to be of National Tourist Interest and popularly known as “la Mananta”, is one of the most important and unique manifestations of popular religious fervour in Andalusia.
Beyond the commemoration of the Passion, Death and Resurrection of Christ, the "Mananta" in Puente Genil becomes a unique hallmark and an unforgettable experience for the first time visitor. It is undoubtedly a festival of sensations, where everything seems to blend into an apparently and even contradictory disorder. It is there, however, where most of its mystery and attraction and lie.
It is also the main festivity for participation, because the Mananta is a festival destined for this.
And with it, the weight of tradition. The Mananta was forged over hundreds of years, and it is traditional because its customs have been preserved in the village itself and passed on from generation to generation.
