HERRADÓN DE PINARES
AVILA, SPAIN NAVALGRANDE OR CANTO DEL PICO |
|
Navalgrande, or Canto del Pico, is currently almost uninhabited during the winter; only one family lives there. This is an ideal location to rest from the stress of the city. In the old times it was a busy station since the people of El Herradón used to work in the railway company. It had bars, shops, a school, and a church which was built by the workers in order to have a worship place. Its patron saint’s day was on 26th May to honour Saint Philip Neri. |
