This was definitely one of the neater cemeteries to visit, and the overcast weather actually added to the ambiance nicely. Lots of famous burials. The lineup here features Oscar Wilde, Jim Morrison, Chopin, Moliere, La Fontaine, and the crypt-style grave with the reposed statues on top are the oldest "residents" (relocated here), from the 12th century. (Also there was a random live bird hanging out in the crematorium.)Read more
