Sabucedo, Galicia — 5 Days of Photography, Culture, and Living Tradition

One of Europe’s oldest surviving cultural rituals, a tradition that has remained largely unchanged for centuries.

Rapa das Bestas in the mountain village of Sabucedo, Galicia — where wild horses are gathered from the surrounding hills and brought into the village in a powerful communal celebration of heritage, endurance, and coexistence between humans and animals.

Rapa das Bestas is not staged folklore. It is a working tradition carried forward by generations of villagers.
