Campo Santo cloister-cemetery, also known as Saint-Jean, built early 14th century, adjoining the Basilique-Cathedrale de Saint-Jean-Baptiste de Perpignan, a 14th century Gothic cathedral in Perpignan, Pyrenees-Orientales, Catalogne du Nord, France. There were originally 4 galleries covered with a wooden roof supported by columns. A central ossuary was dug in 1321 and a late 14th century funerary chapel lies to one side. The cathedral is also known as Saint-Jean-le-Neuf, and incorporates an earlier Romanesque cathedral, Saint-Jean-le-Vieux. It is listed as a historic monument. Picture by Manuel Cohen
