Designed by A.T. Brongniart
in 1804 to replace unsanitary
parish cemeteries, this
landscaped funeral park
is the largest green space
in Paris. An important site of
memories, it has 70,000 graves,
the Communard’s Wall,
monuments to concentration
camp deportees and veterans.
A pioneer in the development of
funerary practices, the cemetery
includes the first crematorium
(1887), columbarium (1889) and
funeral garden in France (1985).
