Fiestas de San José

​On March 19, the Catholic Church celebrates the feast of San José, the husband of the Virgen María and the putative father of Jesucristo, according to the gospels of Mateo and Lucas. This festivity, which has its origins in the 9th century, commemorates the saint as Patron of the Universal Church, of fathers, and of workers. In some countries, this date is also known as Father's Day.
