Abstract

The day of the Cross is celebrated on the third of May and it is a special date for many canarian towns. There are many hypothesis about the origin of the devotion to crosses, but the real beginnings are still unknown. In the town of La Laguna, in Tenerife, the cross became very important. Therefore, there are still many crosses in the streets. In the old town you can also find special constructions called «chapel crosses». There are small buildings which contain silver embossed crosses. Nowadays there are only five of them left.
