Abstract

     In the last few years, Caravaca de la Cruz, as a historic town, has turned to her advantage the medieval relics of the Vera Cruz that it treasures, to the point of becoming an important tourist resort. The religious myth of the true Cross and its conversion into a tourist product have promoted a number of changes in the town, particularly after the celebration of the Holy Jubilee in 2003. The qualitative and quantitative consequences of these changes are explored in this paper, in connection with both the actors and the stage of the above-mentioned tourist product.
