- A twenty-minute visit to the world's most famous cemetery, Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris, France. More than a million people have been buried at Père Lachaise, and its tombs are among the most artistic and varied that you'll find anywhere. It's also a quiet, pleasant place for a stroll or a rest-if you don't mind being surrounded by dead bodies.
This video shows how to reach the cemetery, and shows examples of some of the many varied tombs within. It also shows a random handful of "celebrity" tombs, and a selection of memorial monuments. It's not an inventory of famous dead people or funereal art, just a sampler of what you can see at the cemetery-enough to show why it is such a popular tourist destination.
I've included some very simple narration in the closed captions, but it's not very interesting. The actual audio in the video is sound from the cemetery-and the cemetery is very quiet most of the time, so you'll have to crank it if you want to hear anything (mostly wind in the trees).

I visited Pere Lachaise cemetary myself back in 2007 and it was one of the most enchanting and magical and beautiful experiences of my entire life,I really,really appreciate you making and uploading this video,thanks very much,and I urge anybody to visit this place at least once in their lifetime.
Than you for the well-done video. I have visited Pere Lachaise two times. The cemetery is remarkable for many reasons ... not just for the tombs of famous persons interred there, but also for the art manifest in the many tombs, memorials, and the columbarium.
An amazing place. I found the grave of the Paris Communards very moving.
Thank you for taking the time to make and post this tour, since I and many other folks will never be able to visit this uniquely beautiful landmark in person. It's amazing to see the different designs and architecture over the decades in such a thoughtfully laid out location.
This video is so beautiful...The cemetery is breathtaking, the statues are so majestic and ornate!!! I have never seen such a beautiful cemetery. I know in my lifetime I will never get to visit Paris, so this tour was like a dream for me. I would love to go just to visit Jim Morrison's grave. Thank you for the beautiful tour...
The architecture is amazing. Nowadays none could do so perfect replica. Stunning!
Thank you so much! My husband and I visited in 2018 and now that we are isolated due to COVID, this was a wonderful way to re-experience a wonderful memory. Instantly transported from Canada to France. I appreciated your minimal approach to the video as it allowed me my own experience. Bravo and Thank you again!
A beautiful place. From the most elaborate to the basic grave there was beautiful architecture every where.
Thanks for sharing this video, very well done and very beautiful.
You know how noisy and vibrant Paris is...and sometimes it could be a bit much..and then I discovered Pierre Lachaise..I really enjoyed the stroll ..it was peaceful, lovely settings amongst those that were gone. I needed being here to appreciate the vibrancy that is pure PARIS!
I totaly agree !! Few years ago I lived near Père Lachaise and it was one of my favorite places to hang out ! Beautiful, peaceful, mysterious (it's easy to meet some enthusiast who told you the history of all the residents) and like a museum cause many of graves are very elaborated. Don't forget that it is also a very woody area in the town !
A nice tour without the hurried pace and chattering of newer ones, so for me, it is by far still the best video of Père Lachaise.
Thank you. I don't like to intrude myself in my videos. People watch them to see places, not to listen to me talk. I do include captions that viewers can optionally turn on if they want more information on the place being shown.
Wonderful video! My daughter and I were all over here on October 9th. There was a very atmospheric gray drizzle and it began to pour the moment she put our rose plant on Morrison's grave (I had told her, "I hope it rains the day we visit Morrison's grave at Pere Lachaise" - and it did right at THAT moment. We were singing "People are Strange" after that! I love your "Undead" ... those crows cawing brought back a lot of memories of Pere Lachaise and Montmartre cemetaries - I have a Bombay cat just like the one shown in your video. I gathered several dozen chestnuts at both cemeteries and keep them in a bowl under a painting of a Montmartre cafe in my dining room. I am American but half French and a complete Francophile. What a beautiful place Pere Lachaise is, I asked a guard if an American could be buried there and he said as long as I live/die within Paris city limits! Guess when I start to croak, I need to book a ticket asap! :-)
I was there october the 9th too it was 2012 I was visiting Jim morrisons grave been twice now
That place is so hauntingly beautiful. Morrison visited Pere Lachaise a short time before his death and told his friend that he wanted to be buried there. I was shocked though that no monument of Morrison as poet, which is how he wished to be immortalized, is erected in his memory. Why didn't Elektra and/or the remaining Doors do that as he made millions for them...he was certainly the main draw. I find his grave very sad and neglected. He was a very gifted poet and iconic artist. Will definitely visit Pere Lachaise again next time I'm in Paris.
I know all about that like I said I have been to hes grave twice
Whatever!
DENISE WHY ARE YOU SAYING WHATEVER? ARE YOU SOME SORT OF TROLL WHO IS JEALOUS I HAVE VISITED GROW UP YOU FUCKING STUPID BITCH THAT WAS UNCALLED FOR BITCH
I feel fortunate to have been to Pere Lachaise two wonderful times. It is very difficult to find your way around and I was miserably lost both times. I love the place as I love the city.
absolutely georgeous video. What amazing artwork. Thank you for posting it for an armchair traveler.
Pure art.A real museum.
I LOVE OLD HISTORIC CEMETERIES LIKE THIS ONE THAT REALLY SPEAKS VOLUMESI. THE VIDEO IS ALSO VERY CLEAR. THANK YOU.
Interesting and amazing video, thanks for share, paceful and full of art this cementery.
Each time I visit Paris I make time to go here, a few hours of peace and quiet reflection does me so much good during an always fairly hectic stay.
Thank you for bringing back my memories of this remarkably beautiful and haunting place. I was there in the spring of 1981 when I was 15. Seeing these images made me remember the way it smelled, like mildew and decay.
I always regretted not going here when my high school group was in Paris. Now thanks to you, I feel like I've been there. Great video. Thank you.
It was amazing how old some of the graves were! Some you couldn't even read the head stone !
yeah, est around 1807
was here some days ago, but feel that it was too short time to feel all :) thanks for the video. Nice vibe... Exactly what it is - what I felt there :)
Thank you for a tour to a beautiful, peaceful, reverent place. I'm in USA & can't travel so this is a lovely gift to receive.
put it on your bucket list molly you’ll meet loads of fellow Americans at Jim,s grave when life goes back to normal Trans-Atlantic air tickets are going to be super cheap
This beautiful cemetery reminds me of the Highgate cemetery in England. Victorian and over the top. These people had money to be buried in such style. Thank you so much for sharing this amazing place!
+licksnkicks I was near this cemetery but haven't the back for such a long long walk...but when I lived in England 3 yrs, I went to Highgate a few times but didn't walk everywhere...but it was a great place.
Tout simplement MAGNIFIQUE...!!!
Les plus belles images que j'ai vu sur le cimetière du père Lachaise....!!!!!
I was at Pere lachaise only 3 days ago and Oscar Wilde's tomb was more graffitied than Jim Morrisons with kisses and not only with the glass casing but also railings to. Such a peaceful and amazing place to visit!! I can't wait to go back!! Great video!!!
Beautifully shot video. Very 'tranquilizing' in the best sense of the term. But what, no Chopin? I dearly hope to visit this place some day. Also the Passy (?) cemetery where Debussy and Faure are buried. thanks for the video trip.
correction: faure was depicted here.
Ein sehr schöner, beeindruckender Friedhof wie's aussieht.
Strahlt Ruhe und Friedlichkeit aus!!
Auf diesem Friedhof ist auch Annie girardot beerdigt worden.
Ruhen Sie in Frieden
🙏🕯️💘
Annie Girardot ❣️
Einer meiner Lebensträume ist es, sie einmal am Grab zu besuchen.
Sie hat als Schauspielerin, mein Leben nachhaltig beeinflusst!
What an amazing and beautiful video! Thanks so much for sharing.
The cemetery seems to have a very peaceful atmosphere.
What an incredible place to explore.
thank you. well done, with the piano music ... and especially the birds singing in the background..
Thank you for sharing this video. I really always wanted to see the tomb of Heloise and Abelard and you showed it
Thank you. The sculptures are truly beautiful & works of art probably unparalleled today. It would have been REALLY special had you mentioned the names of the famous who's burial places were shown, as well as what the monuments commemorated or whom they honored..
right. and some more of the greats of humanity, with a short
text.
Thank you so much for video. Im still hoping to see it in person one day as I've heard about it so many times but so glad you took a time and trouble to share!
Another awesome video! Thank you so much for posting them. I anxiously await the next one.
Its really awesome how ornate the cemeteries use to be and look, and how it has become a lost tradition

Merci vivement pour ce beau partage !
Such a beautiful and peaceful place. I'd love to see it.
Simplemente excelente!!! Felicidades, es un video genial. EXCELENTE! Qué hermoso cementerio!
Your videos are always a joy and are the next-best thing to being in Paris! The sounds of the birds, traffic and people make me feel if I close my eyes - I am there! I love all of your videos and this one is particularly lovely.
Pere Lachaise is simply a beautiful place - not sad or morbid at all, but lovely and peaceful. I always enjoy walking thru it and am looking forward to doing so in a couple of months!
Merci beaucoup!
Gracias por compartir su visita a este museo-panteon, muy bien hecho con su audio original, me gusto mucho.
visited here July 1015 and loved it! it was very beautiful!
1015!! Wow!! :)
Ground screw does a phenomenal job with keeping the cemetery clean and well taken care of
i could stay hours contemplating this, thanks for the video.
First time to see your video, such beautiful cemeteries. So peaceful and full of wonderful headstones.
Monsieur Manic, I really enjoyed this video, and I often check back to see if there are new additions. Perhaps you might post something about how you came to live in Paris. I'm sure many of your viewers would enjoy that. Your captions "sound" like you're an American, and you probably have an interesting story about how you are blessed with living in La Ville de Lumiere.
Thank you . Almost as good as a personal visit with the birds singing too.
Cemeteries in both France and Italia can be thought of as open air museums.A unique experience in its own right.
This is excellent. I felt like I was there, Thank you.
Thanks for these videos. I have been to Paris many times but realize it is a city of many places and spaces to be discovered, many not on tourist time. I appreciate your attention to many details I have missed even in the places I have been in the city.
Thanks! It's a really pretty cemetery. You wouldn't think that a cemetery would be so artistically interesting and pleasant to walk around, but this one is!
Super Dokumentation, feinfühlig, informativ, sensitiv.... Gratulation!
Yes, I walked around it some years ago, so, so quiet, just a little amount of birds song, and yet outside of its walls, the noise of vibrant Paris is a orchestra of sound, but inside, so quiet.
Very peaceful except for the loud cawing of the ravens swooping overhead. We also got stared down by a couple of the feral cats that reside there. One was sunning itself in an empty flower planter! :-)
Hi! It's wonderful to see that you are still active! I hope everything went well with your living situation. Hope to see more videos from you soon!
Nice and peaceful video…thank you.
Thank you.
Very well done, it was informative and respectful.
How haunting and beautiful, very well done. Thank you for sharing.
Je quiffe cet endroit j'ai plaisir à m'y promener c'est un havre de paix verdoyant dans Paris et les tombes sont souvent hyper-originales des anecdotes accompagnent certaines c'est intéressant je ne m'y ennuie jamais en déplorant toutefois la tenue de certaines : un groupe d'italiens dont une meuf avec un haut transparent on voyait ses nichons il y a des limites à ne pas franchir un peu de respect et je suis ouverte d'esprit il y a un Doc insolite que je recommande c'est le grand bordel au père Lachaise par Totor un petit chef d'œuvre...
most beautiful cemetery on the planet, i have been many times
I really enjoyed your video! Thank you so much.
Merci! Moi aussi je préfère les vidéos sans commentaire, sans "présentateur" toujours sur l'écran, etc. L'endroit est déjà suffisamment intéressant en lui-même, on n'a pas besoin d'animateur!
16 16 saniyede ahmet kayanın mezarı iki gözüm unutulmadın
Been there. Thanx for the wonderful video.
This cemetery is very beautiful, unique, and clean. The architecture of statue, monselium and tomb very unique. It look like the museum of art from all Europe. I love renaissance art, so this is very incredible place to me . Hopefully 1 day I can come here and enjoy the environment and atmosphere of this cemetery.
Wonderful video that feel like l am there.. waiting for next video
Very well done. I enjoyed it very much. thank you.
Thank you for sharing 💙
Very nice vid.
Good work.
Really good video, thanks.
Formidável, impressionante. Magnífico filme!
Wow, what a beautiful cemetery!
Beautifully done
Such a beautiful place
Unbelievable place. WOW ! I like it.
I just saw the video and it looks like a great place to visit and I like the statues and the monuments of the famous people who are buried there. It's a big place. I don't know the language but some of the names are in English and I've heard of them. Whoever filmed the video did it on a nice day
It's huge and it's easy to spend the better part of a day there. Peaceful and interesting. Hilly with cobblestones so it can be hard on the feet after a few hours. I shot this video myself; it was a very typical day in Paris, with the standard light overcast that is so common in the city.
@@Mxsmanic thanks for the message. I have a friend who's French and is married to an American woman, his brother and family live in France but I forgot where. He brought the family to my dad's restaurant and he had to translate the order to our waitress so she could write it down
You did a beautiful job here.
Excelente video.....paz, silencio tranquilidad.....limpo...
Thank you, Mx !
Video cekimi muhtesem olmus.Emeginize saglik
Meu sonho ir nesse lugar !!!!!!
I sometimes refer to cemeteries as marble orchards of forgotten dreams. Very nice vid.
Love the video. The silver sphere comment made me laugh.
Thank you for sharing this video. I was in Paris last week for 3 days but did not manage to go to the cemetery which I really wanted to. There was too many things to see and very little time. my body still hurts from the walking 😁. wear good shoes while in Paris and comfortable clothes if you plan to sight see by foot.

Thank you !
Great video and cemetery.
Beautiful video.
AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL
It's a film very professional! Thanks!
Beautiful ! I would love to visit.
Huggs,silky
I prefer to exclude myself from my videos as much as possible. There are already plenty of people on TH-cam who fill the frame with their talking heads for half the video, whereas I like to show the destination that is the subject of the video rather than me. Paris is a lot more interesting than I am; I just happen to live in the city.
gut gesagt, der herr.
this is a very well done video and is respectful to those that rest there
Video muito legal. Parabens!
if you ever get the chance.. the army cemetery in San Francisco is well worth a visit... very old and a beautiful setting.
Beautiful🌹
Went there in 2008.Beautiful place!
Your best yet, I think.
Nicely done video
I have been there two times. The first time I had trouble finding Edith Piaf despite having a map. A very nice French couple happened to come by and offered there assistance. They also apologized for their poor English. I assured them that their English was far better than my French.
who cares stupid
What happened to your smile today?
You inspire me!
smiles always: Why this rudeness? You are the stupid. You should be more polite and kind to people.
To be fair, hers is pretty tricky to find.
This is one of the few (the only?) places in Paris where I got a blister from walking. The cobblestones are very uneven and your feet are constantly sliding around. If your shoes and socks slide around as well, you can get blisters from the friction. The only other place I've been that has cobblestones this bad is Versailles. I got a blister at Pere Lachaise because I was wearing cheap socks that were a bit too slippery inside the shoe.
u doing a great job.
