Improvements in the cemetery of Valladolid

Azucena Uits Alamilla, director of the Valladolid Cemetery, reported that for the moment the entire building is being painted green and white.

The front part of the cemetery is also being fixed, since the corresponding masses will be held at the entrance on November 2, the day of the cemetery walk.

“Relatives who lost a family member can now go to clean the graves”, said the director of the cemetery.

She added that usually the arrival of visitors to the municipal cemetery increases a week before November 1 and 2, but it is necessary to have the entire cemetery ready with a good image.

Likewise, she said, work is being done on changing the interior and exterior lighting because the place will be open from October 31 to November 2, from 8 in the morning until 10 at night.

These days the Pantheon closes at the usual time, at 7 at night.
