CAMPO SANTO - LA FUNERARIA CHAPEL

The Saint-Jean cloister-cemetery, known as Campo Santo since its restoration, was built in the 14th century. The galleries of the cloister were covered with a wooden lean-to supported by columns with carved capitals. Each enfeu, in a refined Gothic style, is marked with the crest of the wealthy Perpignan families. A central ossuary was dug in 1321. To the northeast, the funeral chapel or Funeraria, dedicated to Saint John the Evangelist, built at the end of the 14th century, adorned with contemporary stained glass windows by Shirley Jaffé, was intended for funeral ceremonies.
