El Colacho: The Baby-Jumping Festival of Spain

In a small village of Castrillo de Murcia, Spain, an unusual tradition has survived for over 400 years — the festival of El Colacho.

During this festival, men dressed as devils, in bright red costumes and masks, jump over newborn babies who are laid carefully on mattresses along the streets. Locals believe this act symbolically cleanses infants of evil spirits and protects them from illness.

Though the sight may seem shocking to outsiders, the ritual is deeply rooted in folklore, faith, and community spirit. Families come together every year to celebrate, blending devotion with centuries-old cultural practices.

El Colacho is not just a spectacle — it is a testament to the resilience of traditions and the unique ways communities express their hopes, blessings, and care for the next generation.

Even in modern times, the festival continues, reminding us of the rich tapestry of human culture and the importance of intergenerational rituals that connect the past with the present.
