The "Galejada Dels Trabucaires" And The Giants Of The Entire City Of Barcelona Take To The Streets During The Second Day Of The La Mercè Festivities.
The giants of Barcelona are shown to families and tourists as popular culture during the Mercè festivities, in Barcelona, Spain, on September 24, 2022. In Barcelona, the giants are a deep-rooted tradition, which we have heard about since the XV century. There is documentary evidence that in the year 1424, among the multitude of hors d'oeuvres that participated in the Corpus Christi procession, there was a representation of "King David ab lo Jiguant".
