Cruces de Mayo in Nerja

Residents, clubs and associations compete to put together the most beautiful cross. Each participant chooses a corner of the town and transforms it with a floral cross surrounded by flowerpots, mantones de Manila, lanterns and other typical Andalusian decorations. The result is a walking route through corners of Nerja that normally go unnoticed.

Where to find the crosses

The crosses are set up in squares, courtyards and corners of the old town. The Concejalía de Tradiciones Populares publishes the locations each year so that residents and visitors can visit them all. It is an excellent opportunity to discover charming spots.
