Old Urban Cemetery
Old Urban Cemetery, also known as Cementerio Municipal, in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico, is a cemetery with burials back to 1813 or 1814. Near the town of Aguadilla's north entrance, it spreads between the beach and the foot of the mountain, and is enclosed by mortar and stone walls. Many of its older tombs, made of brick, stone and mortar, were damaged in a 1918 earthquake.
Use of the cemetery began when burials were no longer allowed in the churchyard. Graves include that of poet-laureate
José de Jesús Esteves, painter Rafael Arroyo Gely, and Luis R. Esteves.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
