Don´t forget the Medieval Market in the Plaza de la Corredera this evening, Saturday and Sunday as part of the celebrations for the commemoration of the Donation of Calasparra to the Order of San Juan of Jerusalem.
The celebrations this year are muted due to the virus and compared to previous years with lavish medieval horseback parades and a medieval banquet. However, the market promises to be fun packed and full of artisan and ecological products.
There will be no food or drink served at the stalls, due to the Covid-19 protocols, but the bars and restaurants of Calasparra will be open as usual.
If readers are interested in a brief explanation of these celebrations and their history there is a “Short History of the Donation of Calasparra to the Order of San Juan of Jerusalem,” translated from the Municipal Archives on this website.
