I will focus on the collective called “Peregrinos de la Puna” which brings together, since 1988, devotees from different Puna localities among the Argentine provinces of Salta, Catamarca and Jujuy. Through ethnographic materials and archival sources I will investigate how the spatiality of this cult has impacted pilgrim practices and memories, considering representations of the city of Salta as a Catholic hieropolis and the sanctuary as a sacred geosymbol. At the same time, I will analyze how such practices and memories, deployed in their journeys andtheir participation in annual rituals, have affected the spatiality of the fiesta del Milagro, as a central event of Salta Catholicism.   El trabajo aborda, desde una perspectiva antropológica y bajo el prisma de la espacialidad, las prácticas peregrinas en torno al Santuario del Señor y la Virgen del Milagro en la ciudad de Salta (Argentina). Me enfocaré en el colectivo denominado “Peregrinos de la Puna” que desde 1988 nuclea a fieles de distintas localidades puneñas, entre las provincias argentinas de Salta, Catamarca y Jujuy. A través de materiales etnográficos y fuentes de archivo indagaré en cómo ha impactado la espacialidad del culto en las prácticas y memorias peregrinas, considerando las representaciones sobre la ciudad de Salta en tanto hierópolis católica y el santuario como geosímbolo sagrado. Al mismo tiempo analizaré cómo tales prácticas y memorias, desplegadas en sus recorridos y su participación en los rituales anuales, han incidido sobre la espacialidad de la fiesta del Milagro, en tanto evento central del catolicismo salteño. Este artigo aborda, a partir de uma perspectiva antropológica e sob o prisma da espacialidade, as práticas de peregrinação em torno do Santuário do Senhor e da Virgem do Milagre, na cidade de Salta (Argentina). Concentrar-me-ei no coletivo conhecido como "Peregrinos da Puna", que desde 1988 reúne fiéis de diferentes localidades de Puno, nas províncias argentinas de Salta, Catamarca e Jujuy. Utilizando materiais etnográficos e fontes de arquivo, investigarei como a espacialidade do culto impactou as práticas e memórias de peregrinação, considerando as representações da cidade de Salta como uma hierópole católica e do santuário como um geossímbolo sagrado. Ao mesmo tempo, analisarei como tais práticas e memórias, mobilizadas em suas jornadas e na participação em rituais anuais, influenciaram a espacialidade da Festa do Milagre, como um evento central do catolicismo saltenho.
