Abstract
The "General Inquiry of Brotherhoods", ordered by count of Aranda in 1770, shows the important number of brotherhoods in the province of León in 18111 century. The pastoral work by bishops and friars in the previous centuries, favored its spreads in rural and urban areas. In this work we study this phenomenon in its aspects territorial, social, economic and devotional.
