CEMENTERIO CRISTOBAL COLON - 4
 

 

This is the grave of La Milagrosa (the Miraculous Woman). Her name was Amelia Goyri, and according to the story, she died during childbirth and her baby was stillborn. As customary, they were buried together, the baby at the mother's feet. Some years later her husband had her tomb opened, and the baby was now in the mother's arms. Ever since, mothers have made trips to Amelia's grave to ask for miracles for their own children.
