La Herradura will be commemorating the 460th anniversary of the loss of the Armada Española, during Felipe II reign, on the 19th of this month.
Yup, it has come around again and this year marks the 453rd anniversary of the mass destruction of the Spanish Fleet in La Herradura Bay.
The final day of the 450th anniversary commemorations held in La Herradura ended with a solemn act in homage to the 5,000 victims of this maritime disaster.
School Children from La Herradura put on an art exhibition centred upon the shipwreck of 1562 in the village’s bay.
Well, they’ve decided on the design of the official poster for the 450th Anniversary of the 1562 Shipwreck… actually, it would be more accurate to say ‘fleetwreck.’
