The festival of Nuestra Señora de la Virgen del Pino and San Roque
The festivals of the patron saint of Vinuesa are based around the pine, a tree which has been of great importance in the area and is seen as a sign of identification, so much so that the patron saint bears the name: Nuestra Señora de la Virgen del Pino.
The Pingada del Mayo marks the beginning of the popular festival, which has its origins in the disputes between the people of Vinuesa and those of the neighbouring village of Covaleda over the great pinewood that separates the two villages. The dispute was increased when the image of Nuestra Señora de la Virgen del Pino appeared inside the trunk of a tree that had its roots in the territory of one village and its branches in the territory of the other.
