Add PhotosIn the early days of Monterrey, over an extended period, church atriums were utilized as burial sites. This practice was also observed at the Metropolitan Cathedral of Monterrey.
The history of cemeteries in Monterrey can be traced back to 1612 when the first graveyard was established in the atrium of the Monterrey Cathedral.
Starting in 1612, the city underwent a relocation from the northern bank of the Santa Lucía River to a new site situated between the Santa Catarina and Santa Lucía Rivers. In this new location, the Main Church was constructed, subsequently paving the way for the Cathedral's construction, which began in 1626. Interestingly, the grounds of the Cathedral had previously served as a cemetery.
