The feast of Corpus Christi has its historical origin in the year 1264, when it was established by Pope Urban IV, in order to commemorate and praise the miracle of the Eucharistic Consecration. It is anthropologically related to the cyclical evolution of the seasons, with the arrival of spring in which the renewal of nature takes place. The implementation of the Corpus Christi festivity in the Canary Islands took place at the same time as the conquest, so that all the populations of the Canary Archipelago have celebrated the Consecration of the Forms since then.
This festivity was celebrated in La Orotava since its origins as a town, but it started to become famous in 1847 when some members of the Monteverde family, under the inspiration of Leonor del Castillo, made a carpet of flowers to celebrate the passing of the Andas del Corpus in front of their private house. The carpets are one of the most representative artistic manifestations of these festivities. Carpets of flowers and volcanic sands are made for the celebration of Corpus Christi, on its eighth day.
