The Procession of the Redemption takes place on Palm Sunday and runs through the streets of San Martín (León). It starts inside the courtyard of the Hostel of the Benedictine Mothers, when the Abbot of the Brotherhood gives the order to put down the "Capillo" and keep the required silence given to the seriousness of this public act of faith.

VILLALAR was the ultimate battle in the Revolt of the Comuneros, fought on April 23, 1521. The royalist supporters of Charles I won a crushing victory over the comuneros rebels. Three of the most important rebel leaders (Padilla, Bravo and Maldonado) were captured and executed the next day, effectively ending the castillan armed resistance against the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V (also known as Charles I of the Spanish Overseas Empire)
