Hermitage of Santa Ana

Hermitage of Santa Ana
The hermitage of Santa Ana
was built at the end of the
16th century.
Before the church there was
an Arab castle
from the 12th century.

Between 1940 and 1950,
the 3rd of May in this hermitage
a mock battle.
The Moors kidnapped
Saint Joachim and Saint Anne.
Saint Joachim and Saint Anne
are the patron saints of the grandparents.
In Mahoya, the Christians
defeat the Moors.
Over time this celebration
ended up taking place.

Nowadays in this place
the captains roll the flag
on the pilgrimage of the 3rd of May.
