This festival celebrates the patron saint of the Santa Catalina monastery. Every January, the monastery opens its doors to the public. This monastery, though still functional, was considered to be a city in itself, and used to have more than 400 nuns residing in it. Once inside, dig deep into its dark labyrinth of secrets and figure out the story behind the iron chastity belt and the cat-o-nine-tails.
