Malaga City - Fascinating Fact 3

In the 19th century, Malaga was popular with well-to-do Brits recovering from illness. Its mild climate made it ideal for those with a weak constitution, but many succumbed while living here. At first, infidels (non-Catholics) were buried upright in the sand at night, so their bodies would often reappear on the beach. Then in 1830 the British consul finally obtained a plot of land for an English cemetery, outside the city walls. Its more illustrious inhabitants include the writer Gerald Brenan and his wife, poet and novelist, Gamel Woolsey.
