San Vicente de Paul Catholic Cemetery
San Vicente de Paul Catholic Cemetery, Latin Rite Catholic cemetery in Ponce, Puerto Rico.
The cemetery features numerous mausoleums and tombstones arranged along two primary axes that form a cross-shaped layout within the grounds.
Established in 1901 by the priests of San Vicente de Paul, the cemetery became the preferred burial location for wealthy families with plots selling for 60 dollars.
The cemetery incorporates marble from Italy and Spain, along with local pink marble from Ponce, reflecting the status of the families interred within.
The cemetery contains a basement level with burial niches, creating underground spaces for interments similar to traditional catacombs.
Unlike other Catholic cemeteries of its time, this site operates without a dedicated chapel or space for religious services within its grounds.
