Castile and Leon Day (Día de Castilla y León) is celebrated on April 23rd each year in the autonomous community of Castile and Leon in Spain. This date coincides with the anniversary of the Battle of Villalar, which took place in 1521, where the leaders of the Comuneros Revolt—Juan Padilla, Juan Bravo, and Francisco Maldonado—were defeated by the forces of King Charles I. These leaders were subsequently executed, and they are now remembered as martyrs for local autonomy and Castilian traditional rights.
The celebration is not only a remembrance of historical events but also an affirmation of Castile and Leon's regional identity within Spain.
