Evropské lidové slavnosti vás vtáhnou do tradic starých stovky, ne-li tisíce let. Ať už jde o průvody s pochodněmi, lidové tance nebo modernizované pohanské rituály, tyto akce vás zavedou daleko od turistických atrakcí do kulturního srdce Evropy.
V Curychu se loučí se zimou a pálí sněhuláka
Spousta evropských zimních festivalů se točí kolem ohňů, ale jen málo z nich má takovou symbolickou sílu jako Sechseläuten v Curychu. Jeho název znamená „zvonění zvonů v šest hodin“.
Třetí pondělí v dubnu, přesněji 28. dubna 2025, švýcarské město neoficiálně slaví konec zimy. Curyšské cechy procházejí městem v průvodu, který je zakončen upálením „Böögg“, postavy strašidla, které má podobu sněhuláka.
V minulosti bylo Bööggů mnoho, místní děti je přivazovaly k vozům a před spálením je táhly ulicemi. Dnes je Böögg 3,4 metru dlouhá figurína naložená výbušninami.
Přesně v 18 hodin se Böögg zapaluje. Věří se, že čím rychleji se oheň dostane k jeho hlavě, která je naplněna petardami, a přiměje ho explodovat, tím lepší bude léto.
Ohně a požehnání: Středověké andaluské tradice na festivalu v San Antónu
Od 16. do 18. ledna ožívají andaluské vesnice při festivalu San Antón, ohnivé slavnosti opředené 800 let starými tradicemi.
Je to jedinečná slavnost zasvěcená svatému Antonínovi, patronovi zvířat. Od lidových tanců u veřejných ohňů až po kněze žehnající domácím psům, kočkám a křečkům v místních kostelech, nudit se rozhodně nebudete.
Podle serveru Euronews se předpokládá, že festival vznikl ve 13. století. Zemědělci tradičně pálili olivové větve a koše „esparto“, které se používaly ke sběru plodů. Věřili, že oheň zažene škůdce a ochrání jejich olivové háje a zvířata před nemocemi.
Dnes se místní obyvatelé scházejí u ohňů, pijí pivo, jedí pečenou dýni a popcorn a pálí panenky naplněné slámou a svázané petardami. Po celou dobu tancují a zpívají lidové písně zvané „melenchones“, typicky ostré příběhy o mileneckých hádkách.
Když zrovna nezpívají a netančí, chodí majitelé domácích mazlíčků do kostelů, aby jim kněží požehnali jejich chlupaté kamarády.
Festival se koná po celé Andalusii, od rušné Málagy až po bělostnou vesnici Canillas de Albaida. V olivovém Jaénu se můžete zúčastnit 10kilometrového nočního běhu a pak celou noc jíst, pít a tančit.
