What's the story:

If in January you could not see the Tres tombs, in Montblanc you have a second opportunity to see the decorated carriages and horses. In honor of those men that without rest pulled of the cars in the villages) and fields the Commission of Sant Antoni of Mont Blanc brings together more than 60 carriages of all over Catalonia and near 50 riders to celebrate this day. After a good breakfest they start parading through the narrow streets of the medieval villa starting at Sant Francesc's square and passing through the Saint chapel where they will have a stop distribute cocas.

And as the tradition requests, the parade finishes with three turns to the Serra church: the first one is for the health of the animals, the second one for having a good crop and the third one for well-being.
