This small village is very famous for its painted houses, a tradition that dates back to the end of the 19th century: originally to whiten the walls blackened by smoke. Gradually the young women compete among themselves to make the most beautiful decoration. At the beginning of May, they start to cover with lime the faded patterns of the previous year and paint freehand flowers, in bouquets, wreaths, garlands. The dominant colors are red, yellow and blue. The awards ceremony takes place on the first Sunday after Corpus Christi. Today, the Zalipiennes extend their talent to objects, decorating dishes or fabrics.
