Gegants de la Ciutat

The provided documentary descriptions place the gegants within La Patum de Berga, a communal representation associated with the Corpus Christi day; the documentary metadata describes La Patum as a tradition that comes from the 14th century and lists gegants among its participatory figures. The sources do not provide a mythic creation story for the gegants beyond their role in this long-standing civic festival.

Sources list 'gegants i gegantes' among other parade characters (capgrossos, nans, àliga, dimonis) and describe them as 'giants' and 'giantesses' used in the procession. While no detailed visual description, materials, or costume specifics are given in the supplied texts, their repeated pairing with capgrossos and other oversized festival figures indicates they are large, anthropomorphic parade effigies present in the streets and small squares during the festival.

The documentary sources describe the gegants as participants in the choreographed performances and processions of La Patum (appearing in streets and plaçetes full of people and sharing the program with jumps and staged elements). The sources do not attribute supernatural powers or independent agency to the gegants; their described role is performative within the festival.
