Lesa da Palmeira, or formerly known as San Miguel da Palmeira, derives its name from the custom of placing pine boxes in the air.sun in a box”. Legends are traditional stories born from people's imagination over a long period of time, often not fitting into history, and in some cases, eventually completing history.
There is a theory among the people of Lesa da Palmeira that the people of Leza da Palmeira maintained a frustrated naivety and believed that the pine box contained some supernatural power that kept the sun there all year round. On the Day of the Lord dos Passos, there was light, heat and majesty, the streets were covered with green carpets, and religious processions marched through them.
It was therefore very common in Lesa da Palmeira to be open for only a few hours a day on sunny summer days.old pine box or box” to add air to the cloth.

In fact, it was rare for a procession to have to leave or cancel its departure the following Sunday due to weather. Regardless of whether the stair procession took place or not, the next day on the Ravadeiras river there was a peculiar scene in which the Matosinhenses, who were always provoking Leceira, at one moment overtook each other and rode into the river. That's on the verge of fact.
