Beautiful Grave But Shes Not Dead | Oscar Wilde | Frédéric Chopin

Ойын-сауық

In addition to the elaborate tombs, there are various monuments dedicate to individuals or groups of people including:
Monuments for foreign soldiers who died for France during WWII
Monuments in the memory of victims of concentration and extermination camps
Monuments in homage to victims of catastrophic aerial accidents
Monuments in homage to victims of June 1848 (the suppression of the Paris working class uprising)
Monument for the genocide in Rwanda
This famous cemetery is the burial site of numerous French luminaries - authors, writers, musicians and more.
A stroll among the graves is an unusual and rewarding lesson in French and international cultural heritage. Honoré de Balzac, Colette, Eugène Delacroix, Raymond Radiguet, Maria Callas and Sarah Bernhardt are among the cemetery’s notable names. The list of famous individuals who are buried here includes 40 singers, 40 composers and 75 painters.
The star-crossed lovers Heloise and Abelard were the first people of note to be buried here in 1817, when the cemetery was still new. The remains of Molière and Jean de La Fontaine were relocated to the adjoining plots the same year, although for various reasons no one knows for certain whether it is really their bones that lie in the graves. Frédéric Chopin’s grave does indeed contain his body, but his heart is buried in Poland. The composer, who was afraid of being buried alive, had asked for his heart to be removed after he died.
A few madeleines placed on the stone by the writer’s fans are a clue that you’ve reached the tomb of Marcel Proust, while the poet Alfred de Musset’s grave site is flanked by a weeping willow, his favourite tree.
Victor Noir, born Yvan Salmon (27 July 1848 - 11 January 1870), was a French journalist. After he was shot and killed by Prince Pierre Bonaparte, a cousin of the French Emperor Napoleon III (r. 1852-1870), Noir became a symbol of opposition to the imperial regime. His tomb in Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris has become a fertility symbol.

    The bust on the top is Mr Auguste Bain born in 1856, passed away in 1916. He became a cutlery manufacturer and trader. He is the inventor of the mechanical single-edged razor and the hair clipper. It made the fortune of Auguste Bain, for whom the family was able to build an extraordinary chapel, covered with sculptures. The statue with a dog is his son, Robert Bain, born in 1891 and passed away in 1904, at a young age of 13. As for the identity or meaning of the other two statues, a boy and a girl remain unknown.

    In Pere Lachaise, where twilight softly weaves, A realm of whispers, where love never leaves, Amidst the sepulchers and ivy's tender grace, A sacred beauty in this enchanting place. Ancient oaks, their limbs in reverence bow, To guard the secrets of those resting now, Each stone a saga, etched in history's embrace, In Pere Lachaise, where souls entwine with grace. Cobblestone paths meander through this sacred glen, Where vows of ardor and tears return again, Carved angels stand with mournful, watchful eyes, While the world outside in chaos flies. Oscar Wilde, in opulence, finds his sleep, 'Neath verses kissed by hearts that vigil keep, Piaf's sweet song, forever in the breeze, In Pere Lachaise, where legends find their ease. Jim Morrison's tomb, adorned by fervent souls, A rock 'n' roll poet, in sepulchral roles, In the City of Light, his spirit still does roam, In Pere Lachaise, where he's found his home. Marble sculptures, aged by the weight of years, Marked by grief, by love, and countless tears, Yet here, 'midst fragrant blooms that gently rise, Life and death waltz in profound reprise. Tombs and crypts, an artful labyrinth to view, A gallery of passion, of love renewed, In Pere Lachaise, where past and present twine, A timeless promenade, where souls entwine. In the moonlit alleys, and the sun's warm embrace, A saunter through Pere Lachaise, a sacred space, Where the living and the departed merge in night, In this cemetery of beauty, 'neath the Parisian light.

    The statue of the still living lady is not a big secret. It is mentioned on the internet with picture and information. She organized it herself in 2008. Her name is also on the gravestone of her husband who is burried in a different cemetry. So she already creates some kind of mystery around her future death. Btw : I've been to père Lachaise several times and it is amazing. Thank you for your beautiful video!

And why is her husband not with her? Hmm. But not just the statue of her, the amount of care, time, and attention to detail for so many of the gravesites and memorials here is amazing...every corner you turn its amazing...and each one is a persons history. Wow...could easily spend a lot of time there exploring!!

I remember we found Yves Montand, Oscar Wildes ( There was no glass partition) and Sarah Bernhardt graves. We eventually found Jim Morrisons and there was a guard guarding it at the time it smelled of drugs as well. If I had know about the guy you can rub I would definitely having given it a feel🤭😉🤣🤣🤣

    Found some information on the lovely lady who died in 1944. Found it in French and used Google to translate it. Mrs. Andrée says: "In 1944, I live in the Montparnasse district, Lucienne lives in the Les Halles district where her father has a fruit and vegetable business. In August 1944, the announcement of the Allied's rapid advance led to a rumour of a near liberation of Paris. A few days before the arrival of the French troops, the resistance fighters harmed the occupants. I often call Lucienne to tell her what is happening in my neighbourhood and Lucienne is enthusiastic and ready to live this moment that we have all been waiting for for a long time. We made tricolour flags with what we could in the meantime. But it's also confusion. On August 20, 1944, Lucienne hearing an armoured sound, assumed that they were the liberators and went to her window waving her tricolour flag... unfortunately it was a German troop and a shot killed her Lucienne. That's how we are a victim of what was supposed to be a moment of joy: the liberation of Paris. ”

    George Rodenbach cause of death appendicitis at age 43. Typical reason for an early death in the days before antibiotics. His tomb is one of the best sculptures in Père Lachaise for me. Remarkable but not ostentatious, as some are clearly monuments to the family's wealth.
