Three Midday Masses for All Saints' Day
November 1 is the day when most people from Córdoba visit their deceased loved ones, and Cecosam, the municipal cemetery company, supports this with solemn masses at three cemeteries. All begin at 12:00. At San Rafael Cemetery, on Libia Avenue, the Eucharist is officiated by the bishop of Córdoba, monsignor Jesús Fernández González. At the same time, there is a solemn service at Nuestra Señora de la Salud Cemetery, on Custodios Avenue, and at Nuestra Señora de la Fuensanta Cemetery. The official Cecosam poster also lists a service at 18:00 in La Salud, although the municipal note released to the press only mentions the midday mass that day.
Music and Visits on the Same Day
The mass coincides with the last day of the “Music for Remembrance” cycle: on November 1 there is a violin and piano performance at San Rafael, a guitar performance at La Salud, and two piano performances at Santa Cruz Cemetery. In the evening, at 20:00, the Fundación Loyola theater group performs “Don Juan Tenorio” at La Salud Cemetery, with prior reservation. On Monday, November 2, All Souls' Day, masses continue at La Salud and La Fuensanta.
Schedules and How to Get There
The masses are free to enter. From October 23 to November 2, the municipal cemeteries are open continuously from 08:30 to 19:30, and Cecosam expects more than 50,000 visits during these days, so it is advisable to arrive early. Aucorsa reinforces bus line E, with direct stops at the cemetery entrances, and Cecosam has prepared parking areas.
