Weddings in the Congress neighborhood

🎙️ Collective documentation

This image was taken in the former parish of the Congress, located on Espiga Street, which is currently a center for retirees. The provider of the image comments that it is from the wedding of one of the individuals from the center. One participant notes that the priest pictured was the first priest of the Congress and later inaugurated the current Parish of San Pío X.

Participants in the collective documentation recall that many photos were taken at weddings. Although they specify that "Rich people took many and the poor, fewer. Because developed photos were expensive…".
