Overview
- Families flocked to cemeteries across Galicia and Jujuy over Nov. 1–2 to place flowers, clean graves, and pay tribute to relatives.
- Florists reported one of the busiest weeks of the year with chrysanthemums most requested, many shops pausing new orders, and typical spends near €40–50 with entry arrangements around €20.
- Local police implemented traffic controls at high-demand sites such as San Amaro in Pontevedra and Trigás in Moaña, following cleanup work and earlier repairs to keep grounds accessible.
- Religious observances proceeded on schedule, including five masses at Jujuy’s Rosario cemetery and four at El Salvador, with Bishop César Daniel Fernández presiding at the first service.
- Longer-term shifts framed the weekend: Pontevedra’s digitization has logged about 40,000 interments since 2012 and cremations have tripled in a decade, while Moaña plans €1.2 million in upgrades at Trigás and Tirán’s cliffside columbariums remain at risk with many urns removed by families.
