"San Agustín" at the Romantic Market

We walked through the cathedral square, dazzled by the spectacle unfolding before our eyes. The Romantic Market had been set up in the Sierra Pambley Foundation, an old 19th-century mansion that had been tastefully and elegantly restored. There were several rooms and two patios, one with a stage where traditional music concerts were performed, and a bar serving drinks and tapas.

They sold all kinds of products, from handmade clothing to ceramics and jewelry. Many of the vendors were local artisans, but there were also exhibitors from other provinces who had come to showcase their skills and promote their work.

In the middle of the square, a crowd gathered to watch the parade of banners and decorated floats representing each of the province's towns. It was a tradition that dated back centuries and remained very popular among the residents of León.

We headed toward our small shipping container, which we had designed especially for this event. It had been built by our friend Jose Manuel Rubial, a man who had dedicated his life to building unique and sustainable structures. We were proud to be able to offer our delicious coffees in such a special place.

People flocked to our small stand, curious to try our delicious coffees and chat with us. It was a perfect day to enjoy the Romantic Market and the San Froilán festival. We were happy to be part of this tradition so beloved by the people of León.
