by the time the procession arrived
to this city, the sky was blackened and

soon a strong
rain all over the island, in addition to the story
previous, there are several legends about the
virgin of the valley according to one of these, the

image of the virgin was painted by angels
that they took her to the indians so that she
protect them from the abuses of the conquerors
some guaiqueríes found it on

some bushes and they took her to palguarime
to build a chapel there, nevertheless
soon the virgin appeared again
at the place where she had found him

finally, the indigenous people understood that
it was there where the virgin wanted to be venerated
and they built a chapel that over time
it was to be transformed into today’s sanctuary

according to another legend, the virgin was next to
of the patriots in the battle of matasiete

and she healed his wounds, so she too
she is known as the patriotic virgin
