| ARRIVAL OF QUEEN JOANNA I AND FUNERAL PROCESSION |
|
|
|
The inhabitants of Tordesillas have always considered Joanna as their queen. If you want to get off to a great start here, do not call her "Joanna the Mad", and call her "Joanna I of Castile". The sad fate of the queen, whose father and son did not allow her to reign, penetrated deep down in the people's hearts. That's why they make a very emotional commemoration of each anniversary of the arrival of Joanna I and the funeral procession of her dead husband, Philip "the Handsome". She did not leave Tordesillas during almost 50 years, until her death in 1555. In the middle of March. The performance and silence are shocking making us to live the live moment. Images TV
