Matines and song of the Sibyl 2021

Singing of the sibyl (El cant de la sibil·la), celebrated in the churches of Mallorca in the religious trade of Christmas night, was declared in 2010 Well of Immaterial Cultural Interest by the UNESCO. It is one of the few living examples of medieval folklore that only survives in Mallorca and in Alguer (city of the Italian island of Sardinia where they speak Catalan), although in the last years it has been revived by some areas of Menorca, Valencia and Cataluña.

The sibyl is represented by a character that may be male or female and refers to the so-called apocalyptic final judgment, despite the fact that the ritual has pagan roots.

In the municipality of Manacor we can enjoy the singing of the Sibil·la in various temples and churches.
