Constance de Saxe - Cobourg - Gotha was an Austrian actress and singer. She married Leopold de Saxe Cobourg - Gotha , the uncle of Queen Victoria's husband, Prince Albert de Saxe Cobourg -Gotha. After her husband's death she returned to France to live. The British Royal Family is related to the German Saxe Cobourg - Gotha family through Queen Victoria's marriage to Prince Albert.
Thanks for this. I recognized the name but couldn't quite place it.
Yeah, so she was a cousin in law by marriage to Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. She is not a blood relative or in anyway related to the Windsors. Their burial site is Frogmore. Bit creepy to be driving over graves on that bridge.
Her maiden name was Constanze Geiger. She was a well-known musician in the era of Johann Strauß sr. and a good friend of him and his sons. For example, she was commissioned to compose music for the wedding of Emperor Franz Josef I. and Duchess Elisabeth in Bavaria (Sissi).
Correction you mean she married the uncle of Albert and Victoria wasn’t their parents brother and sister 🤷🏾♂️
Constance married Albert and Victoria's cousin, Prince Leopold, and she was given the lower courteous title of Baroness of Ruttenstein.
So sweet seeing the beautiful Cats.😊
I hope my final resting place will have cared for, fed, happy cats to visit my grave and nap on my warm sunny monument 🐱❤
Queen Maria II family.
It's the vault of Sister in law of the Queen Maria II of Portugal (her husband Leopold was brother of Our King Ferdinand II (Who built the Palácio da Pena in Sintra).
The House of Windsor came into being in 1917, when the name was adopted as the British Royal Family's official name by a proclamation of King George V, replacing the historic name of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha. It remains the family name of the current Royal Family.
This place is so beautiful. I think it exceeds Highgate. Love everything inside and out. 🙏♥️
Wow. I can't choose. Love BOTH
It is beautiful there, but having been to Highgate east and west when they opened up free roaming at Highgate west, I think Highgate has the edge. It has no graffiti which I’m sad to see here, and I just feel that the monuments on both sides are really interesting and quirky. I do love that huge mausoleum though.
I do love the individual little sentry box mausoleums, and the 1920s and 1930s designs on some of them, but personally for me I feel it’s all a little spoilt by the bridge. Such a shame even though I know it must have been needed by the living.
Such an amazing and fascinating cemetery. Thanks for sharing, GV!
It’s Queen Victoria s family. The bridge must have been built after the cemetery was claimed for interments and memorials. It is still beautiful, and made mysterious by the bridge overhead.
Bridge was constructed afterwards yes. The House of Windsor came into being in 1917, when the name was adopted as the British Royal Family's official name by a proclamation of King George V, replacing the historic name of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha. It remains the family name of the current Royal Family.
Some of the graves are covered by beautiful chapels it would seem. Probably masses were said from the alters, with family seated on the chairs. Thank you for showing this remarkable place.
Officious security didn’t protect from damage not done by videos cameras.
Security didn't like me it seems filming lol
Absolutely amazing ...i could spend all day there and then some. Such unique stones and monuments. Thank You for Sharing with Us.
I love the work on these statues amazing to see
The mausoleum of princess Soltikoff 👸🏻is definitely the most beautiful one of all.
This cemetery is amazing everywhere you turn there's so much to see..Definitely up there with Highgate 😘
Amazing cemetery. I loved the detail on the mausoleums and the sculptures!
Glad you enjoyed it
Nijinsky was a famous Russian ballet dancer; he was portrayed on his tomb as one of his best known characters. The tomb of Edgar Degas you saw; he was the painter of those marvelous ballerina paintings.
Thanks, I was just going to go add that on my previous comments. He at one time was the worlds best male ballet dancer. He could dance en pointe. Really hard for men to do. I remember reading about him when I was younger. I’m going to have to find that movie The Red Shoes, to watch.
I get the feeling this is a cemetery for families with excess generational wealth. The size & detail of some of these mausoleums are insane. It makes you wonder that those families with that sort of wealth ever go to visit their loved ones who sure they never met but passed in the late 1800s or early 1900s??
GV those prayer kneeler pieces of furniture you keep seeing in vaults ( and sometimes churches) are prayer desks called
“PRIE-DIEU” which means prayer desk. 😀🙋♀️🥰🦋🦋🦋
Thanks Helen ❤️🙏
❤ Thank You for filming this for us ❤ Wonderful cemetery , questionable security 😖
They acted like they were wanted by the police and didn’t want their faces shown 🎉
They should know better not to interact with a member of the public like that. They need more training lol
Do they know who you are!?! The nerve of them!
Thank you for taking us all on your journey to this amazing Parisian cemetery...the sculptures, flowers, families, famous, photographs, architecture!! All of it!! Given my life circumstances i will sadly probably never be able to visit Paris. I was just awestruck at the mausoleums here. It is like a city of the dead...necropolis? Thank you for stopping at so many of tge gravesites and looking inside of the mausoleums.
Beautiful GV! There's so much to take in. Thank you so much. (I had to rewatch. I got booted out twice 🙄)
Glad you enjoyed it! TH-cam unfortunately does that
Hollywood Forever Cemetery in California charges a rather exorbitant fee to film there. On the Ask a Mortician channel she mentioned the Cemetery employee following her in a golf cart and calling out how much time she had left.
Crazy isn't it
Typical California smh
Awesome cemetery! I get the feeling that this cemetery is primarily for the well to do, prominent citizens. These monuments are so cool! Those mausoleums that are in need of repair, I would imagine that the families have long since passed away, and there is no one to visit anymore. As far as those security clowns 🤡 are concerned, they were probably exceeding their own authority. You did right by just continuing the video. This was a fascinating video, thank you very much GV. Take care.
As a, photographer it's something we are taught to be very conscious of not everyone wants to be recored 👍
I Wasn't recording them they approached me. I was filming the mausoleum
That brownish mausoleum is beautiful 🤩
What do you mean GV can't film here? You are obviously not familiar with his channel...You security blaireaus! 😳
I thought that too !
Those under the bridge are somewhat protected.
Nice to see the personal information.Great !!
That is very true the graves won't get damaged by weather etc
Well GV and what can l say!?, another great vlog, and this cemetery is amazing not to mention huge!!. I don't think I've ever seen so many vaults in one grave yard before, looks like these were wealthy people. Well done👏and thanks for sharing 👍..........
Thanks again!
Great Video. Thanks for sharing.
Great video! How much would these mausoleums cost today!?! I would be so lost in there😂. Thanks GV💕
Out of our price range lol
@@GraveVisitations yup😂
Wow, beautiful cemetery. Thank you for showing this !!
Thanks for watching
Don't leave France without doing many videos about its cemeteries because they are in addition to containing important people they are touristic places .. thanks for your efforts
I have a few videos up from Paris check them out 👍
Wow that first mausoleum you looked at Saxe Coburg probably a relative of Queen Victoria hence crowns. Lots of beautiful art deco style memorials just so beautiful the only thing that spoilt it was the jobsworth security
They didn't bother me lol
Good
Filming in France itself isn't usually a crime - but filming people, without their consent is illegal.
I was filming the graves and camera pointed other direction when they called me looking for attention. So if they didn't want to be on camera they should have ignored me
@@GraveVisitations totally agree.
Thank you for sharing your travels with us. I appreciate the time you take to provide these videos to those of us too old now to make the trips, and walk through the cemeteries.
Thanks for watching! 🙏
Conurbation De Saxe Gotha, German royal family, ancestors of the King.
So I believe
Even the dead are not getting any peace. Sax coburg is the previous name of them lot in Buckingham Palace
Beautiful! The monument that resembled a church was absolutely remarkable!! Stay away from those security guys LOL... I was waiting for you to meet up with Serenity Sue, I watched her video meeting you :)Thanks for sharing, awesome video!!
What a beautiful cemetery!!
I suspect they didnt want their own faces on film lovely place
Same conurbation part of Alberts family Victorias husband.😊
This is the most gorgeous cemetery that I have ever seen.❤❤
I'm in graveyard my self love to film with you 💖 love to I'm in Elizabethon Tennessee keep up the good work
Only just enough clearance under that bridge. What harm were you doing for those security guards to jump on you 🤔
Absolutely nothing
Charlotte Saxe-Coburg-Gotha will be related to the royal family, That was their name before they change it to Windsor. Hence the crowns on the gates of the mausaleum.
At 36:42. Luckily, true to french form, the security forces, who were clearly wrong, retreated/surrendered quickly. Your video was lovely. Thank you for sharing this beautiful and unique cemetery that I will never be able to see in person.
Yes they tried to pull a fast one lol but they don't know. Thanks for watching 👍
A privelege to be able to be able to see them in the presence.🎉😊
First they had a thick algerian accent, second the surrender joke tells more about the one that makes it, pitifull. And no it's not coming from an offended french but a dismayed belgian.
Le cimetière du Père Lachaise à l'est de Paris est très intéressant aussi !
@@nickduf I have done a video in Père Lachaise Cemetery Paris 👍
Very sad you’ve placed loved ones there to rest and all they get is vibration noise and smell.
I don't think they themselves wanted to be videoed lol made me chuckle
there is some absolutely beautiful coffins here. The ones under the bridge will be protected from the weather. I especially like the ones at the very beginning that are like little houses. I never thought a cemetery could be beautiful but here we are. A special thank you for taking us on this adventure with you.❤
Even ordinary cemeteries are beautiful places. I’ve got no intention of residing in one but I do like visiting them. I shall be cremated and my ashes probably kept by family.
Thank you GV💕💕💕💕💕💕👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Miecislas Kamienski was a Polish soldier who died for France at the Battle of Magenta in 1859.
Very well recorded. I would have edited the security idiots out but a great video. A lot to see !
That's what happened while I was there. I left it in because people need to see and know what rights they have in a public area cemeteries etc
It's possible what the French guys meant was not to video them rather than referring to the whole cemetery itself.
@@rogercarroll2551 they approached me shouting so if they didn't want to be on camera they should not look for attention
Certainly not like anything I’ve ever seen before, thanks to you and Sue for showing us .
Security! 😂 I used to work security ,and some of my coworkers took their jobs much too seriously, just like the two you ran into. I rolled my eyes a lot on that job. Anyway, Paris has beautiful cemeteries, and as you say, they are wonderful outdoor museums. Thanks for the tours! 😊
I think these security people imagine they are police lol
@@GraveVisitations 😂
Very interesting video , thank You so much for these impressions ! 🤩
i'd love one of those kneelers omg!
Wow they are magnificent to see ❤ thanks 😊
Saxe-Coberg-Gotha is the real name of the British royal family; Windsor is their stage name..
The family name was changed as a result of anti-German feeling during the First World War, and the name Windsor was adopted after the Castle of the same name.
These cemeteries you visited are immense. Good to see others walking around also, forget the security guy, silly comment on his end.
NO NOT SELLY! YOU HAVE TO BE RESPECTFUL THEY DID NOT WANT (THEM) TO BE FILM 👎
@@linaburon5672 cry more
@@linaburon5672It’s a PUBLIC cemetery. There is zero expectation of privacy, whilst in public! Please educate yourself before dissing an excellent blogger and his sharing of video.
How amazing is that. They built around them.
I read an article once where it said that people used to go to cemeteries to have a picnic with their deceased family members which was the impetus to start the Parks system and central park was built after for that reason if I remember correct🤷🏻♂️
Yes similar situation in London cemeteries. Brompton cemetery etc
Yes, they did😀! I, personally, think it’s such a nice concept. Mt. Auburn cemetery in Massachusetts is built as a beautiful park cemetery.
Fancy building a bridge over a cemetary😢
Wow this is amazing thank You for sharing .
Glad you enjoyed it
Y’all my brother and his wife just texted me, they are at this cemetery today! They are visiting Paris for only 3 days and I sent them Sue’s and GV videos of this location! Turns out, it is right near their hotel! 💖
That is awesome! Thank you for sharing us out 👌❤️
Thanks for sharing this video with me outstanding ❤Nicola xx
Cheers nicola glad you enjoyed it
With a cities progress for traffic flow it's not surprising that an underpass would be built over a graveyard it happens in American cities too and in smaller towns people don't always agree with it but In the name of progress it happens in New York citie they built entire bypasses or overpasses over there biggest graveyard headed out towards long Island they run out of room to build overpasses so they have to build it somewhere
I have never seen anything like this in my life.
Amazing cemetery
I wonder to what extent the people who built these grand tombs for themselves thougt that they would be remembered. Did they fancy themselves so important at they thought people would know of them in 100 years or was it just the fashion to build these and not considered out of the ordinary for the well to do. Hmmmm?
They had lots of money I suppose and couldn't take it all with them so no expenses spared. But I've seen mausoleums that cost a small fortune from people who owned thousands of acres of land. Falling apart with coffins and bones scattered
Beautiful place. Great job.
They are called Kneeler's in the united states. Your tours are Amazing.
Thank you ❤️
Actually Constance de Saxe Coburg Gotha is the daughter in law of Prince Ferdinand of Saxe Coburg Gotha the younger brother of Ernst of Saxe Coburg Gotha father of Prince consort Albert husband of Queen Victoria. Also the older brother of Victoire of Saxe Coburg Gotha the mother of Queen Victoria. And also the older brother of Leopold of Saxe Coburg Gotha the first King of Belgium.
Saxe coburg Gotha was name before they changed the name to Windsor
@@GraveVisitations I know. The Belgium Royal family changed it to Of Belgium although that’s only for the old King and Queen, the current King and Queen and the heir to the throne. All the others are still Saxe Coburg
The princess saltykoff was a con artist very well known in Paris 😊
I think they meant don’t video them as they were trying to hide their faces. I know you were filming the cemetery but they got into shot.
Not my problem lol
Love the Art Deco Tomb with the mirrored door
Is this the same one that Serenity Sue filmed? It’s a beautiful place
Some very distinguished graves in there
Thanks GV 👍🏻
Yes it is thanks
If you get a chance to go across the pond to the U.S., visit Greenwood Cemetery in Brooklyn, N.Y. It is one of the most beautiful and oldest cemeteries in the U.S. with excellent, artistic mausoleums, graves and monuments. You won't be disappointed.
Beautiful mausoleums. It would seem that the bridge built in 1888 would be decorated with ornamentation to fit the surroundings from the time and not so industrial looking (except for the columns, of course).
Some of those Graves all mausoleums are pretty spectacular in very large
Amazing the Queen Victoria family laid to rest here
One of the coolest things I've ever seen. I shhould love to go there & to pere la Chaise as well.
You definitely would love the cemeteries in Paris
Nijinsky was a famous and notorious ballet dancer in the early 20th century. There is actually a film on his life from the early 80s.
The Stained glass is so Beautiful.
French Impressionist Edgar DeGas amazing ❤
,, RESPECT,, FOR THE DEAD. ,, PEAPEL,, (. Ai,m. A Dutch Lady. ). THANK YOU. FOR. DISS….❤❤
Wonderful, I have never seen this part of the Montmartre Cemetery.
It is very beautiful and full of history
@@GraveVisitations Yes it is. For instance Constanze von Sachsen-Coburg Gota, whose tomb you showed at the beginnig of the video, was an Austrian singer who married Prince Leopold von Sachsen-Coburg Gotha who belonged to an Austrian and catholic side line of the family. But there would be much to write about many people buerried in this magnificent cemetery.
Wow just wow my minds blown thankyou x
Super cemetery with so much elaborate graves
Wow what a place!! Extra rude staff tho ❤️
Finally caught a live premiere! Hi y’all 💖
Hey hey! 👋
Oops! Look out for the security. ❤❤❤😂😂😂
I have been to this cemetery years ago. I don't remember seeing the overgrown grass around the tombs. I wonder if there is a caretaker who keeps the cemetery groomed or of it is left to individuals to look after their graves. Does anyone have that information? Thanking you in advance.
No idea Donna I was just passing through but I did see guys cleaning certain parts of the cemetery
Thanks so much for taking the time to reply. Much appreciated.
The only member of the royal famely its CONSTANCE SAX COBERG GOTHA.
The House of Windsor came into being in 1917, when the name was adopted as the British Royal Family's official name by a proclamation of King George V, replacing the historic name of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha. It remains the family name of the current Royal Family.
Beautiful!!
Pffft. Don't they know who you are?! This will be "interesting"...
That is beautiful cemeteries❤❤❤❤❤❤
Yes loved the locations but sorry for your problem.
Why would the graves not have been moved, very disrespectful to keep the loved ones here
Constance married into the Royal family in April 1862 she as Constance Geiger married prince Leopold of Saxe Coburg and Gotha there is a lovely picture of her on Wikipedia. Such an interesting cemetery
Oh wow I will look that up thank you
Amazing.❤️
I have visited this cemetery and the viaduc overhead is a disgrace… the noise is very loud and it’s extremely ugly. Shame on the planners of this monstrosity.
The words rest in peace doesn't apply here apparently
OMG WOW THIS IS VERY INTERESTING!
Lovely french gv public public legal legal 😂😂😂😂
👍😁
THAT FIRST GUY PROBABLY TOLD ON YOU ‼️
Love
Stairs going down
Sachsen Coburg Gotha is an old german house of Dukes . The Coburg is a castle in the city with same name in Bavaria , Oberfranken . 😅Not only Prince Philipp , but also Queen Elisabeth and their children are Germans . 🤣I think they don't like to be reminded .
