'Castellers' build six human towers in the Zocalo of Mexico City

epa10988773 Acrobats known as 'Castellers' perform in the Zócalo of Mexico City, Mexico, 21 November 2023. The Catalan 'castellers' built six human towers in the Plaza de la Constitucion, popularly known as the Zocalo, in the heart of the Mexican capital. The 'colla' or group from Vilafranca del Penedès (Barcelona, Spain) made three 'castells' (castles) between seven and eight stories high and three pillars, which are simpler constructions where one person climbs on top of the other, until they achieve the desired elevation. These 'human constructions', deeply rooted in Catalan popular culture, have more than 200 years of history and, specifically, the Vilafranca group celebrates its 75th anniversary in 2023.
