The Mortuary & Cemetary at Tumacacori
The walled area north of the mission contains the cemetary. It is thought that there are several hundreds of bodies buried here. Only about 25 graves have been identified.
The cylindrical building is the mortuary, but like so much of the mission, it was never completed. The holes in the outer wall are there to hold the scaffolding that was to be used while the dome was constructed.
