CÉRÉMONIE DU PASTRAGE
Go there and contact
At the midnight mass in Saint Vincent church, the inhabitants of Les Baux-de-Provence return to this very ancient ceremony and animated the living crèche. The pastrage pays tribute to the shepherds. This very ancient pastoral custom corresponds to the period of lambing. The boss of the pastres wearing his cape of bure, a enrubanné hat and holding his pilgrim's stick, is surrounded by other shepherds, children and girls who are present, including a small pastre holding the last born lamb. The procession is illuminated by light lights passing through the village. All the pastres then go into procession to the altar, to the sound of drums and galoubets, to bring the lamb in offering the priest in offering the priest and paying homage to the child Jesus.
