Description
Abstract
En este trabajo estudiamos el cambio de ubicación de los distintos cementerios de Totana en el siglo XIX.
Hasta 1811 estos espacios se situaron en templos y ermitas. Las epidemias de principios del siglo XIX obligaron a materializar las disposiciones que Carlos III había publicado en el siglo XVIII y que decretaban
alejar los enterramientos de los núcleos urbanos. Fue así como las autoridades locales iniciaron la construcción de un primer cementerio en la población en 1812. Este ámbito estuvo en uso hasta que en 1885 se
edificó el cementerio actual, el de Nuestra Señora del Carmen, más alejado de la población y siguiendo un
modelo estético e higienista establecido por el arquitecto diocesano Justo Millán Espinosa.
In this work we study the change of location of the different cemeteries of Totana in the 19th century. Until 1811 these spaces were located in temples and hermitages. The epidemics of the early nineteenth century forced to carry out the provisions that Carlos III had published in the eighteenth century which decreed the removal of burials from urban centres. This is how local authorities began the construction of a first cemetery in the population in 1813. This place was in use until 1885 when the current cemetery of «Nuestra Señora del Carmen» was built. This cemetery is further away from the population and follows an aesthetic and hygienist model established by the diocesan architect Justo Millán Espinosa.
