Lonely Planet review for Hospital La Divina Provedencia

Also known as El Hospitalito, this hospital's chapel was the place where Monseñor Romero was assassinated by government agents while celebrating mass in 1980. A man fired a single shot, striking Romero in the heart and killing him instantly. Take a tour around his quarters and satisfy your inner voyeur with a grim glimpse of his blood-soaked shirt and robes.
