The La Orotava City Council is organizing an urban escape activity on July 24th, inviting citizens to explore local heritage through a historical enigma.

The proposal, titled Cruz y Compás, takes participants back to the reality of La Orotava in the year 1884. During the route, attendees will take on the role of journalists with the goal of clarifying a past event that deeply marked the local community.
The itinerary will begin at 6:00 PM at the Plaza del Ayuntamiento. The dynamic combines discovering the municipality's streets with solving a plot based on real events involving social and religious tensions of the time.
Attendance at this initiative is free, although prior registration is required through the digital platform enabled for the event. The activity is supported by the local council.
