Roasted Chestnuts in Cordoba

Comer castañas asadas en Córdoba

As every year, in Cordoba the positions of roasted chestnuts in the streets are traditional. They are small stalls where chestnuts are roasted and sold. They are so characteristic that they remind us that autumn has arrived.

Near each post, the smell is so appealing that you have to stop to buy a cartridge at least to try them. At this time of year you want to eat them warm, made with charcoal embers.

When chestnut stands will be open

This year, they will begin to see the streets from October. This year, the city council has given authorization to be open until mid-January. Although they are traveling, chestnut stands are authorized by the town hall itself.
