Leon is full of customs and things to see for visitors and those who like to join in. Customs with deep urban or rural roots, civil or religious, ceremonious or popular. Rural and urban, civil and religious; formal and informal, each one with its own feel and style. Customs that, taken together, form the traditions that society forges along with its future, together with the stories of saints, confraternities, guilds, ancient tributes, hard fought battles, heroes… The outcome is masses, blessings, processions, oaths, offerings, meetings, carnivals, music, songs, dances, street theatre, commemorations, festivals…, the remembrance of customs, the customs of every date, the date of every year.
