Ánimas, las nueve noches de la parida es una recreación teatralizada que recupera una antigua tradición canaria de los siglos XVIII y XIX: los velorios de parida. Durante nueve noches, familiares, amistades y vecinos acompañaban a la madre y al recién nacido hasta el bautismo, creando una red de protección y cuidados frente a las creencias y los temores de la época.
De la mano del Instituto Canario de las Tradiciones (ICT) y la Asociación Dragos y Laurel de la Villa de Moya, esta propuesta invita a descubrir una parte poco conocida del patrimonio cultural inmaterial de Canarias y a reconocer el valor de la solidaridad vecinal, el amor y la fraternidad.
The Alameda de Colón commemorates the passage of Christopher Columbus through the city on his transatlantic adventure. The square is located in the Triana neighborhood next to the Plaza de Cairasco and the Literary Cabinet and houses the church of San Francisco, which keeps the image of the Virgin of La Soledad, highly venerated among the inhabitants of the city.
Next to the Alameda de Colón, on Domingo Déniz street, there are three buildings of great architectural interest. At number 5, the Casa Civerio Lezcano, which belonged to the estate of the same name and was rebuilt in the 18th century, and at numbers 7 and 9, two buildings from the first half of the 19th century, clear examples of Canarian neoclassicism.
The monument to Columbus, which presides over the square, was designed by Laureano Arroyo around 1892.
