Canon Peters: rector of San Antonio and keeper of the cathedral archive

Ibizology

In this episode you will meet Canon Francisco Torres Peters – Rector of San Antonio and keeper of the diocesan archive next to Ibiza cathedral in Dalt Vila. He is an expert in church history and the perfect person to describe the development of Christianity here. At the end of the interview Canon Peters shows us some important pieces in the museum including a relic believed to be a piece of the true cross. Finally we cross the road to the archive where I am shown a manuscript from the Spanish inquisition in Ibiza plus an old herbal by Linnaeus.
