The relatively small chapel at the Hospital of Divine Providence was the site where Óscar Romero was assassinated while offering Mass on March 24, 1980. Even before his 2015 beatification, pilgrims came in a steady stream to this now historic site, but since then, the number has increased as more people around the world want to learn more about Romero and Salvadoran history.
