Funeral traditions

2 articles

On 1 November, a national public holiday throughout Spain, millions of families visit the cemetery with chrysanthemums and candles to honour their dead. Every household observes these days in its own way, with or without faith. Here we bring together the meaning of each custom: All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day · regional traditions, from La Castanyada to Samaín · flowers and the visit to the graveyard (buying them in advance saves 20–40%) · the eco-friendly funeral, with cardboard coffins from €300. We are here to support you with respect.
