“Saint Gaudérique, make it rain! “: in Perpignan, a procession against the drought

The low sky and the very light drizzle which, on Friday, vaguely moistened the green spaces of Perpignan (Pyrénées-Orientales) will not be enough to reassure the population of the department threatened with a period of drought without historical precedent. So, this Saturday, March 18, several hundred people participated with impressive fervor in a procession to implore the good graces of Saint Gaudérique, patron saint of farmers, known for triggering waves of rain.
