In the Christian imagination, there was a wide range of actions to shorten the time spent in Purgatory and thus gain access to Paradise. The Hispanic Monarchy embraced this worldview and implanted it in its overseas territories. The burial of bodies on the floors of churches had been practiced for centuries. It was believed that prayers and masses would help the dead reach salvation. This article aims to address these elements of the Christian imaginary with regard to funeral practices for the city of Santa Fe de la Veracruz during the second half of the 18th and early 19th centuries. La muerte es quizás uno de las cuestiones que más temores ha generado en las mujeres y los hombres a lo largo de la Historia. En el imaginario cristiano, había un amplio cúmulo de acciones para acortar el tiempo de permanencia en el Purgatorio y así poder acceder al Paraíso. La Monarquía Hispana acogió esta cosmovisión y la implantó en sus territorios ultramarinos. El entierro de cuerpos en los pisos de las iglesias llevaba siglos en práctica. Se creía que las oraciones y misas ayudarían a los difuntos a llegar a la salvación. El presente artículo se propone abordar estos elementos del imaginario cristiano en lo que concierne a las prácticas funerarias para la ciudad de Santa Fe de la Veracruz durante la segunda mitad del siglo XVIII y principios del XIX.
