Evento declarado Fiesta de Interés Turístico del Principado de Asturias
The town of Torazu, in the municipality of Cabranes, hosts the festival of El Carmen on the last Sunday in August.
Its origins date back to 1766 and its uniqueness lies in the date of celebration, which is different to the traditional day on which this saint is venerated. It is believed to be due to the fact that the villagers agreed to wait to harvest the spelt crop, which is harvested at the end of August, in order to make the loaves of bread offered to the Virgin, in gratitude for the favours granted.
Sunday, the big day of these festivities, has been declared a Festival of Tourist Interest in the Principality of Asturias.
