The town of Sant Vicenç de Castellet celebrated the Saint Anthony Abbot festival this Sunday, maintaining a century-old tradition despite heavy rainfall throughout the morning.

Organized by the local Carters Guild, the event showcased a significant collection of historical horse-drawn vehicles. The parade included traditional carts carrying wicker baskets, firewood, and sacks, highlighting the town's agricultural and transport heritage.
The procession started at Cal Soler and moved towards the parish church for the traditional blessing of the animals. Accompanied by a marching band from Cornellà de Llobregat, the participants completed the tres tombs (three laps) around the town center.
