The arrival of the Three Kings in Taradell features atxes de barballó, torches made from a fragrant plant in the lavender family. Declared a local cultural asset, this tradition illuminates the path to guide the Kings into town. The scent of the burning lavender defines the evening, as neighbors use the torches to create a trail of light for the procession.
The Planns tip
The lavender gives off a sharp, distinct aroma when burned; it is the defining sensory experience of this local tradition.
The venue
We trace Llagostera's medieval layout along its defensive wall, Sant Feliu church, and the cork industry remnants that shaped the Gironès region's character.
