France is dotted with thousands of cemeteries: some stand out for their history, others for their sacred character. While they all deserve your attention, some of them clearly stand out from the crowd. Forested, perched, urban, maritime, paved: they represent a wide range of landscapes and atmospheres, and the quiet stiffness of their paths is sure to transport you to another time. Enough to create certainty: a beautiful cemetery is worth a beautiful museum. You will quickly get lost among the white and gray tombstones that line the promenade.
