Falles


The Falles is a traditional celebration held annually in commemoration of Saint Joseph in the city of Valencia and other Valencian towns, from 15 to 19 March. The term falles refers to both the celebration and the monuments burnt during the celebration. The Falles festival was added to UNESCO's intangible cultural heritage of humanity list in 2016.

This stamp was issued on 1 March 2022.

    1. I like it. And I'm astonished there aren't more stamps dedicated to the falles. If I'm not wrong, there is only this one, from 1984.
