La Chartreuse Cemetery
 

Description

Known as Bordeaux's answer to Paris's famous Père Lachaise cemetry, many well-known people are buried here, including Goya, Lacour, Flora Tristan and Gauguin's grandmother. Like its larger counterpart, it is also home to an amazing variety of monuments and thus offers a window onto the world of 19th-century sculpture. Its suitably peaceful atmosphere is also reminiscent of the Parisian cemetry.

Interesting
By Natasha, 11/21/06
It was interesting to wander around this massive cemetery. The tombs and sepulchres really are quite different to anything you would see in a cemetery in Britain - much more grandiose. Obviously you don't have to pay to go in as well.
