If one word defines Holy Week in La Bañeza, it is authentic. The Convent of Discalced Carmelites in the town, from 1592 and its relevance in the commissioning of works of art, will have a significant influence on Holy Week in La Bañeza.

The three Bañezan brotherhoods are from the 17th century and earlier. The Vera Cruz Assistance Brotherhood has a rule that dates back to the 14th century, with headquarters in the Hospital de la Vera Cruz. That of Nuestra Señora de las Angustias y Soledad, from 1615, with a hermitage owned by the Brotherhood and with its steps exposed throughout the year. In its chapel and surrounding areas, 4,000 portions of chickpea stew with cod are cooked and distributed in what is the gastronomic-religious festival of Castilla y León. It has an important imagery.
