Cementiri de Poblenou
I've spent entire mornings in here reading tombs. The epidemics of 1821 and 1870 are documented in the rows. The Civil War executions are documented in the absence of rows.
Barcelona's oldest surviving cemetery, opened 1775. A catalog of 250 years of the city's bourgeois memory, its epidemics, its executed, and its forgotten.
