🖼️ European Day of Prehistoric Rock Art – October 9th 🖼️

On October 9th, we celebrate the European Day of Prehistoric Rock Art, a day chosen by the Council of Europe and the European Commission to honor the incredible legacy of prehistoric rock art across Europe. This date is particularly significant because it is closely linked to the *Cave of Altamira*, one of the world’s most famous rock art sites, located in Cantabria.

Altamira's cave paintings, often referred to as the "Sistine Chapel of Paleolithic art," are an extraordinary window into the lives and creativity of our ancient ancestors. This day serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and understanding our shared cultural heritage.

Discover Cantabria’s deep connection to prehistoric art and explore its rich history!

🌟 This Sunday, April 14th, marks the end of the Lebaniego Jubilee Year, with the closing of the Door of Forgiveness. Throughout this year, thousands of pilgrims have journeyed to San Toribio and passed through this door, drawn by its rich history and spiritual significance. The Door of Forgiveness will reopen in 2028, but embarking on the Lebaniego Way remains a unique experience, and visiting the Monastery and the Lignum Crucis is always a rewarding endeavor. Don't miss out on this opportunity for spiritual reflection and discovery! 🚪✨
