CEMENTERIO N° 2
Adjacent to Cemetery No. 1, this cemetery of 3,000 souls made it possible to pay post-mortem tributes in a more fitting manner than the simple common grave that had existed until then. Thus, in 1845, the second cemetery officially opened its doors. Amongst others, the tomb of Admiral Manuel Señoret Astaburuaga, an officer who took part in the Pacific War and the torpedo battle of 1880, and the mausoleum of the mother and brothers of Arturo Prat, hero of the naval battle of Iquique, rebuilt after the 1906 earthquake, can be found there.
