== Vows leading to pilgrims to shrines ==
Resorting to saints to ask for health had different phases throughout the 20<sup>th</sup> 20th century, as could be seen in our surveys. The custom of resorting to vows or promises or to pilgrimages to shrines in order to obtain good health was frequent until halfway through the last century; there are currently more old people who take that step (Beasain-G, Murchante-N).
The people surveyed in Mendiola (A) noted in turn that the greater fame of the large shrines such as Lourdes in France or Fatima in Portugal has been to the detriment to other closer places of pilgrimage, such as San Victor de Gauna (A), San Antolín de Urbina (A) or San Antonio de Urkiola (B) that are increasingly less visited.
