The “Caganer”
The Caganer was a obliged figure in the Christmas
Cribs of the eighteenth century since at that time
was believed that with his fertile depositions the soil
of the crib will became rich and productive for the
coming year! It was also believed that he would
bring good health and calm to the body and the
soul, which is necessary to do the crib with pride
and happiness that Christmas brings at home. Putting
this jolly little man in the crib used to bring luck
and happiness. |
