Full
of trees, the cemetery occupies the former site of three farms, of which a
listed tower belonging to one of the flour mills still stands.
Among some of
the famous works of art at the cemetery is 'Le Baiser' (The Kiss) by the
sculptor Constantin Brancusi (1876-1957).
Visitors can discover the burial
places of famous men and women: Charles Baudelaire, Guy de Maupassant,
Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, Charles Garnier.
A haven of peace at the
heart of one of the liveliest districts in Paris.
