know that they showed me the first thing in Oviedo, at the very beginning?
Well if you do not know what might have guessed)) correctly) Cemetery Pilgrims)
San Salvador - Cathedral of Oviedo
"Quien va a Santiago, i no al Salvador visita al criado i deja al Señor".
here X1 century, when King Alfonso II el Casto opened the pilgrimage to Santiago (Camino Primitivo) there is a hospital, where pilgrims have all the assistance and treat patients with pilgrims, and if someone still died buried him there and then close between the chapels of the cathedral (one of them Romeros Chapel (Capilla de los romeros) are not; Romeros - Pilgrims coming to Rome, the tomb of St. Peter)
Strictly speaking cemeteries no longer exist, the reconstruction of the cathedral the bones of pilgrims were collected and placed in ossary.
Now this place called the Garden of Pilgrims say that the germ of the olive was brought from Jerusalem, the right of Gethsemane Supplies a devout pilgrim)
Several sarcophagi inside the chapel.
