29 January 2023, Spain, Palma: A man dressed as a demon, holding a firework, walks among the people during the traditional Correfoc at the end of the annual town festival in honor of the town saint Sant Sebastià (Saint Sebastian). According to historians, the tradition of fire devils, which also exists on the mainland in Catalonia and Valencia, has both pagan and religious origins. Photo: Clara Margais/dpa
