The legend of the Rooster of Barcelos
The Rooster of Barcelos symbolizes Faith, justice, and luck. It is a symbol rooted in Portuguese popular tradition. This traditional rooster is represented in very bright colors representative of the traditions of the Minho region, the cradle of Portugal.
Barcelos is a small town in Northern Portugal. Several crimes were committed there and no culprits were arrested until the day a pilgrim traveling to Saint John of Compostela was found guilty by the court.
He claimed his innocence and went to the judge to prove it. Seeing a rooster in a basket near him, the accused said: "It is true that I am innocent and your rooster will rise and crow when I am hanged!
