The cemetery of Vilanova i la Geltrú was built in 1855. We can mainly find modernist graves like the one of the bishop of Armanyá.
As it happened in other towns, most of the panteons belong to the people who emigrated to America looking for fortune. Some of these graves were projected by known scriptors, and architects such as Bonaventura Pollés or Domenech Estapá. In this cemetery there are also buried famous artist of the time such as Victor Balaguer, manel de Cabanyes, Joan Milá….
