- The most visited cemetery in the world Père Lachaise Cemetery (Cimetière du Père-Lachaise) is the largest cemetery in the city of Paris.
Père Lachaise Cemetery was opened on 21 May 1804. Napoleon, who had been proclaimed Emperor by the Senate three days earlier, had declared during the Consulate that “Every citizen has the right to be buried regardless of race or religion”.
Presently there are more than 1 million bodies buried there, and many more in the columbarium, which holds the remains of those who had requested cremation.
The rules to be buried in a Paris cemetery are rather strict: people may be buried in one of these cemeteries if they die in the French capital city or if they lived there.

I was there in 1995. I hitchhiked there from Ramstein Germany with my girlfriend. No gate then at Morrisons grave. This was a beautiful cemetery and I wish I could visit it again. The only thing that bothered me, was all the graffiti. And some vandalism which I am sure that is why they gated off Morrison's grave. It's a damn shame the people cannot respect such a beautiful place.
My cousin went back in 92 I think it was and found junkies nodded out on his grave with their arms still tied off and needles laying on the grave..and yes graffiti. He tool a picture and showed me when I was very young and I couldn't understand why ppl were napping in a cemetery and the thought horrified me.
Actualmente no tiene grafittis acabo de estar el pasado noviembre de 2022
l'un des plus beaux cimetières du monde. Magnifique vidéo. Super.
I was there in 1983 to see Jim Morrison's grave... It looked much different then... The bust of Morrison was on top of the headstone and no fence around...
Beautiful cemetery
I totally agree. I was there in 1985
Great video! I love this cemetery and living in Paris it continues to surprise me with details and stories of those buried.
Спасибо.
Great vlog THANK you so much.
Pere Lachaise is an amazing place..i can roam around there for hours on end..
Been there numerous times in the recent past.
Very well done video thanx again!!🙂
Thank you for your comments which pleases me it was worth the effort in creating - like you have visited on many occasions. So many stories to be told
Ciekawy film o równie ciekawych postaciach minionego okresu. Zawiera istotne informacje z ich życia i epoki w której żyli. Cmentarz, to historia, która przemawia poprzez te wszystkie groby. Świetny film. Dzięki!
thank you for your comments :)
❤❤❤ A très bientôt ❤❤❤
excellent video ,Thanks so much
Very interesting video, a lot of famous people are buried in that cemetery. Thanks for share-
Loved the trivia as well as the tour.
Thanks for sharing 💙
This was very interesting. Thank you.
Great video. Impeccable editing and music.
I concur.
How strange are the rich to spend a fortune on housing decaying Earthly remains when it is the soul which is immortal and lives on forever in our minds! Rest in peace, all who are buried in this magnificent cemetery.
It is an expensive cemetery to keep your remains and therefore is one for the rich only it seems. However, I don't think they would ever remove the famous graves. Thanks for watching and for your comments.:)
Merci , arpenté tant de fois depuis mon enfance j'ai reconnu tous les endroits , toutes les allées ......................
I love hanging out here with my friends, it’s our favorite cemetery in Paris!
Fascinante esse cemitério!
muchas gracias por el video. Fantástico
Thank you so much for this beautiful video. I have an upcoming trip to Paris and now already know the location of many of those I wish to pay my respects to.
Loved your video so interesting so many beautiful graves have you ever seen de Gaulle grave in colombey les 2 églises ?it's very simple for such a great man💕
Amazing Video. Great 💐👍💖
I was there in 2013. I Love Oscar Wilde.
A beautiful place with very important people
This was one of the stops we did on our honeymoon... fantastic, interesting place! I think we were only there for 3 or 4 hours and there was still so much to see when we left.
So true
Absolutely stunning vid.
Thank you. ❤️
Excelent video interesting gravestones
Glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you for the comments
Perfeição ❤️🖤
very well made amateur video. graphics and music are perfect.
I want to see more of your work joe, keep it up
Visited Paris recently and ofc we went here as well,nice video, amazing place :)
I visited Père Lachaise Cemetery in 2004 shortly after the Olympics in Athens, Greece. A dream came true for me, to pay tribute to Jim's grave. I went to several graves and the ones you have in your video. I am impressed by the plexiglass or the glass around the tomb of Oscar Wilde. It was not like that then. What year was the video taken? By the way, you have done a very nice job. Well done..
Thank you so much for your comments and observation, this was filmed in 2018 and at this time there was plexiglass around the tomb of Oscar Wilde, just two years earlier it was possible to physically touch the tomb. I imagine it was difficult to keep people from kissing it with lipstick covered lips. Many stories in this cemetery, look forward to return one day.
@@joejourneys i went to paris for 2015 christmas and i couldnt touch the winged Gal
CONGRATULATIONS AI FOR THIS JOURNEY TO THE PAST WITH NAMES WHO HAVE GONE BUT ARE UNFORGETTABLE
Life is short and the old people knew it. That is why the cemetery mausoleum and other simpler construction were made with respect.
Seria bom alguém explicando os nomes das pessoas sepultadas no cemitério.
Willa Cather visited her in 1902 and wrote about it briefly in her letters. It affected many of her later writings. (See "Willa Cather in Europe," published 1956)
I had the chance to have my high school located right next the pere lachaise cemetery and whenever i felt like not going to school, i would stroll around the cemetery searching for hidden spots and god there are a lot !
Thanks for sharing your tale of spending time here.. :)
Muy buen video
Lovely video. I was lucky to visit this cemetery years ago…I will never forget it. Note for travellers: it’s well outside of Paris.
Well outside of Paris ? It’s…. Literally in Paris 😭 even though it’s not in the center of Paris, the 20th is one of Paris most beautiful district, and it is especially rich regarding the leftist revolutionary and resistant history it carries, I highly recommend travelers taking a walk in it and getting lost
If I ever get to Paris, I want to do a video honoring Marshal Michel Ney's memorial there, as well as the other 13 more Marshals of France who served under Napoleon and numerous Generals as well... it will of course be posted on CZcams!!!
Nice cemetery but my favorite still is, by far, the stunningly beautiful Recoleta Cemetery in Buenos Aires !
Thank you for your comments. You might want watch my own video of Recoleta cemetery in Buenos Aries - czcams.com/video/lkLU9dGFBDU/video.html
@@joejourneys Thanks for letting me know, I’m watching the video now. I think I prefer Recoleta over Pere Lachaise because it’s more intimate and compact, it’s like walking into a labyrinth of beautifully designed tombs. Both are very interesting to explore though
I totally agree 👍
Der schönste Friedhof der Welt !
Just FYI, I Shazamed that song that plays in the beginning and again later, and the info I got is it's called "We're At Wit's End" by Jules Gaia, because I tried to look for the song you give credit to and it's totally different.
Modern Vintage Gypsy - Gavin Luke original, you might be refereing to Alter Name: Gavin Luke - Modern Vintage Gypsy 1 | Neuer Name: Jules Gaia - 12th Floor Party
Visited this year , what a cemetery ...got to be the best in the world .
The most beautiful of all 😍 3:30 and what about Delacroix´s? You missed that one, an extraordinary too.
Thanks for the comments. I know I missed so many and could have spent days here showing the awesome amazing people and tombs of people. And their stories. Maybe one day I will make another
❤️
Let's hear it for Faure. If you gotta go, that's the way to go.
Allan Kardec and Samuell Hanemman ¿?
😯😯😯
The footage quality is great..but the music is wrong..it would have been more effective with a mysterious sound effect. ☠👻🔮
Jim Morrison’s tomb in Greek it means, “ true to his own spirit.” His father put it there.
Tahiti 🤙
It is the statue of Euterpe on Chopin's grave.
Since space is rented, cemetery is kept up!
Why no Bizet?
Cause there is so many more I could have included.. perhaps on another visit
I could spend hours on there .
Why do you forget J I M ?!
Jim Morrison is the first grave visited
EdithPiaf!!!!!
A badly maintained cemetery full of well known people . If it is a tourist you would think the French would take better care of it .
გენიალური ადგილი პარიზში... მისტიკური სასაფლაო... არ დამივიწყდება როდესაც მოვხვდი აქ
Wilde's gravesite is maintained by the Irish government - They evidently got fed up with people defacing it with graffiti so they cleaned it up and put that plexiglass round it to protect it. it's kind of Ironic that they treat him better in death than they did in life. Such were the times I guess.
The cemetery is the witness of human race saga!
IMPORTANT OR NOT...RICHT OR NOT...BEATIFUL OR NOT...WEN YOU ARE DEATH YOU ARE NOTHING....NOTHING.....
Ahh Jim Morrison never understood why he wasn’t brought back to the USA when he died a national treasure lost to loser France
Stupid comment
Did Faure come up with the phrase 'give my head til I'm dead'?
Visitato con 38 gradi a Luglio. Pensavo di morire ed essere seppellito lì
