DANCE of DEATH / DANSA de la MORT, Verges
April 12, 2009

Dansa de la Mort / Dance of Death
Verges is a small town on the North of Catalunya, it presserves a unique medieval tradition in Europe, THE DANCE OF DEATH. Please look for more info here
All the town is expectating for the procession

First at all we do a fast tour to the village






The Moon is raising, the time to visit the Church







The narrow streets are almost on the dark, everything is in silence


In the walls of the streets rinds of snail with a wick bathed in oil have stuck to ignite them and to illuminate the procession

Snails for illumination
The procession is starting, the people wait patiently on the narrow streets more than 3 hours to have a good place




Finally the moment to fire arrived, a nice beautiful light is on the streets





THE PROCESSION









THE DANCERS OF THE DANCE OF DEATH ARRIVE…
