Memorable Markers with Meaning ...

The cemeteries of Paris are unlike anything I have ever seen in North America. (Not that I make it a habit of wandering around cemeteries, mind you). In any case, if you ever get to Paris and get tired of museums, the cemeteries are an incredible experience. The large ones even have guide maps showing you where the famous are spending eternity. Although the cemeteries are peaceful, green spaces enveloped in history and as such are a good for a quite stroll by themselves, you will find many grave markers that are unique in design and deliver a powerful message of either those interred or those left behind. Many leaving you wishing for more information on those lives lived.

These photos are but a few that I managed time to see in the cemeteries of Montparnasse, Montmartre and Sacre-Coeur.

Press F11 and select original size for best viewing. And as always, if you think these photos are worth others seeing, please vote for them (simple click at bottom of page)so they may gain some visibility in the very large database of excellent work in Pbase.
