Bárányles

Local nameBocz kereszt
LocationHosszúhetény, Magyarország

The bárányles is a local tradition in the southern Hungarian village Hosszúhetény and around the Zengő mountain, a night pilgrimage on Easter Sunday, in which only males can take part.

The participants set out from the feet of the Zengő to reach a cross called by locals "the Bocz-kereszt" before dawn. They sit, drink and talk at a fire near the cross until dawn when they surround the cross and briefly pray to welcome the arrival of daylight, or "the Lamb", Jesus Christ.
