Immerse Yourself in Medieval Romance With the Weddings of Teruel

Teruel celebrates once again the Weddings of Isabel de Segura. With almost three decades of history, the 29th edition of the reenactment of the Lovers of Teruel has broken attendance records, surpassing the figures of previous years. This festivity, which transports the city to the 13th century, has maintained its constant growth since its inception, establishing itself as an event of great attraction for the public.

This edition has incorporated more acts, scenes, actors, and stalls in the medieval market. Additionally, the number of spectators has continued to increase, consolidating the success of participation and attendance, also favored by the good weather that joined the celebration.

The town's mayor, Emma Buj, has celebrated the great turnout the event had this year: "The Weddings of Teruel are a sure success." However, the most emotional moment is highlighted: the unexpected appearance of Isabel de Segura. Upon revealing her face, she disclosed her identity and, in a final gesture of love, leaned over Diego to kiss him. Immediately after, Isabel collapsed. It was not a simple fainting: she had died. In light of their love, Don Pedro de Azagra allowed them to be buried together, thus sealing a fate that had been denied to them in life.

Lorena Muñoz, director of the Weddings of Isabel Foundation, highlighted the success of this edition and the good reception of the introduced novelties. She emphasized the intensity with which the actors lived their roles, fully immersing themselves in the story of Isabel and Diego. She also highlighted the spectacular nature of the funeral, one of the most innovative scenes of this year, and reaffirmed the organization's commitment to creativity and the improvement of the event.

The protagonists of the story, Andrea Gálvez and Ignacio Caballero, confessed that they had not yet assimilated the magnitude of the experience. For them, the Balcony Moment was especially emotional, as they could see friends and family visibly moved among the audience. They also highlighted the affection received from the spectators and the strength of the final applause.

Meanwhile, the mayor herself emphasized how this festivity has become an essential part of the city's identity. She mentioned that this year's protagonists have never known a Teruel without the Weddings of Isabel de Segura, showing the deep connection of the people of Teruel with this tradition. In her opinion, the event not only revives one of the most iconic love stories but also unites the entire community in a great shared stage.
