there was a grave the piqued my interest as you passed, I had to pause and translate it. Turned out to be a boy of 11, Carlotto. Beautiful poetic epitaph his family gave him- " his strong intellect, which had manifested itself early as a vivid light, had radiated the parents with hope. but on the night of January 25, 1888, he extinguished the kind Carlotto, traveling as if in whirlwinds of fire, affections and passions and ideals"

even sadder, above him it looks like his sister, who was born a few months after Carlotto's death, and having died around the same age: on June 25, 1888 soothe the disappointment of his loved ones due to the passing of a daughter, she was born Guilia Moglin her birth was a hope, and nothing was spared, so that she would grow strong and kind. the inexorable scythe of death of the evening of 26 February 1895 reaped this tender life.

Hi Dan. I love your idea of chilling with the relatives who have passed. You could read or listen to music or just enjoy the peace. A haven from this world of madness.

Those bodies in shrouds were CRAZY!!

The good news is: it's unlikely to be something dead, if it's mosquitoes.

Thank You dear friend! It's a very beautiful and historical cemetery. Open bodies in the one mausoleum - maybe it's a embalmed bodies from old times, 120 -150 years ago.

Very beautiful and interesting place.

Nowadays people live in tiny houses just a little bit bigger than those mausoleums.

no kidding but most not from choice but necessity, some countries housing is so insanely expensive, that such places sadly are all they can afford

I love all the wrought iron doors... they are lovely. Its massive there. ❤

:) it’s not just you! And not in a morbid way. My mother is an artist and was always interested in people’s life stories and their history. Old stories. When I was little, her and I would take the dog for walks on sunny days through cemeteries. We would bring chalk and paper and find the oldest tombstones we could in the cemetery and do grave rubbings. We would imagine what that person’s life was like and pick daisies and dandelions or whatever little flowers we could find, and place little bouquets down for people. For me, they are amazingly peaceful places. Looking back, I think at a young age it taught me empathy, respect, and the beauty of life. And when my mother is gone one day… I have a beautiful sketch book filled with grave rubbings that serve as memories of her and how was always so interested in others and she cared for people in general. She went on to become a medical equipment expert and now assists people during their last days with us with such compassion. I am in the process of taking over her business as she retires, and often her patients tell me she will forever have a very special place in their heart… like a daughter. She always spent extra hours off the clock chatting with the elderly who just wanted to tell their life stories but the nurses were too busy to listen. Now, when we go visit their graves once they’ve gone, we don’t have to imagine their lives into wild fantastical stories. And often, the true life stories are much, much more interesting. ☀️ 🕊️

That cemetery should be called The Maze of Death. Hands down the creepiest yet most fascinating conglomeration of burial places yet.

You could prank soneone: talk them into letting you surprise them w something, so they'd have to wear a blindfold (and this is at night), and let you take em somewhere. You get to the cemetery, and they have no idea where y'all are. So you're wearin night vision goggles as you lead him to the very middle of said cemetery. You tell him to count to 10 or whatever, and then he can remove the blindfold. You've already snuck away heading back to your car. So to his shock he finds his self completely lost in a dark cemetery, having to find his way out. So you sit in your car and wait, laughing your ass off. You listen for any sound of his voice. You continue to wait, even if it takes till morning. Maybe he found his way out in some other direct. Or maybe he didn't make it out at all...?

Wow !! What a beautiful and peaceful place to be buried.

It's amazing to me how much money people spent back then to build actual buildings to hold their loved ones' bodies. Some beautiful architecture in that cemetery The mosquitoes were happy to see you 😂😂

No homeless or graffiti? Imagine that.

Thank you Dan for the great tour.

Beautiful cemetery, I could spend hours there, so peaceful except for the birds. ❤

Thank you for all the walks in the cemetetaries of Naples. Beautiful, but they may need some good maintenance. You certainly made it out alive! Martha

I could spend hours walking around there Dan.👍

Nothing wrong with being weird.

Mausoleums as AirB&B’s that’s pretty damn weird! That’s what I love ❤️ about you Dan!

Another interesting video Dan Knowing the traditional history and architecture of these cemeteries in Italy Thanks mate for posting 👍🇦🇺

“Maybe not this one, it’s too small” you had me laughing out loud 😂

Cemeteries in Europe have amazing monuments and can't get over all the trees, plants and flowers.

Stunning cemetery xxxx

Looks more like a neighbourhood more than a cemetery. Beautiful.

Beautiful graves ..could you tell us the dates on some of them.

True cities of the dead,love the idea of renting them out 👍great tour thanks

Amazing place dan,that bird is a squaker lol nice to hear..yes i would be down there too at weekends cleaning up & fixing anything that needs it but also play some music🎶 that the deceased loved while visiting.👍🏻 Thanks for a fab video dan👍🏻😊

The shroud on the right looks like a few shrouds, covering different bundles of bones. The left one looks like a complete body. What an amazing place. I could spend weeks there. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the tour, Dan, stunning old cemetery.

Thank you for another awesome video, But PLEASE can you give us a few lill peeps inside of some of the amazing mausoleums as you dart past,,

Thank you 4 showing us

Wow,the sun shining through the stained glass window gives off an ambient light for the Scala family.👍✌️

Thanks again Dan great video

I now understand the true meaning of the word ' Necropilis'.... City of the dead. Some of these mosaleums are bigger than my house. Beautiful architecture. Thanks Dan.

Fascinating tour Dan Thankyou.

You can come to Messina Cemetery in Sicily, one of the biggest in Italy. I can guide u

I think these are some of your best yet for, well done . Just awesome & interesting. Thanks Dan

Those statues are amazing. I'm glued to the video . Thank you ❤

Love the video Dan!!❤👍🏼

Everything is beautiful.

I wish I knew my Greek better at this time. Very interesting you helping me with a missed episode in my education that I am learning now. Thanks so much.

It's a very beautiful place with lots of nooks and crannies to explore. I love it.

A columbarium holds cremated remains not coffins. Coffins placed above ground are in a mausoleum, and coffins in a subterranean space are in a vault. Possible to have all three in the one building. A fascinating collection of videos of a vast cemetery

Literally a dead end Great content Thankyou

You definitely got your steps in.

Was going to say the same thing.

It's a beautiful cemetery, even in its decay isn't it? They could do with getting a squad of like-minded people to volunteer to help tidy it up a bit because it's such a shame that it was allowed to go to wrack and ruin. On the subject of using buildings there to hire out to people, they did that with the Samuel Worth Chapel in the General Cemetery here in Sheffield and among other things, there's a monthly Goth/Alt night there called "Into The Trees". They don't have many tickets for sale and the ones they do have sell really quickly, because the capacity for the chapel is only 60 people, and that includes staff, guests and any performers.

I always think it is lovely when you can see the face's of the person who has passed away I feel you can sort of connect with them in their place of rest somehow thank you for showing us this peaceful cemetery 🤍🙏🕊️🕯️

Very unique cemeteries

Following from Australia 🇦🇺

The medallions with the photos are of very good quality. If you think how long they’ve been made, and they have not faded . Many years ago when I was in Florence, there was a shop that specialized in medallions on the Piazza.

It is an ashame that the cemetry is being neglected. I would love to visit somewhere like that. The history and of the people and the place is so amazing and fascinating. Some of the mausoleums look like two story apartments they are that big 😲😲 It is crazy that people have spent so much money on a resting place for past family members only to have it slowly crumble over time as no one is around to take of the graves/mausoleums

ive always been fascinated with death monsters graveyards; now though at 66 its not just idle curiosity; this is coming attractions; also you realize entire world maps; entire societies friends places to go; hopes dreams; whole worlds gone

Wow....shocking. thankyou Sir

The candles, as is the case among Catholic cemeteries in the US, are used loved ones of the dead to guide them through Purgatory. The place between Heaven and hell. So that’s what the candle holders are for.

Amazing how Naples' Greek and Roman heritage continues in the architecture of this cemetery except for the occasional Egyptian style but in ancient Pompeii nearby there was an Egyptian community living there.

I imagine many of my family’s graves are in the shape these are in. They’re in various places throughout the world.

Very Nice Video ✝️

What a shame they do not have groundskeepers to remove all the excess herbage and clean the exteriors.

Hey Dan! This is absolutely fascinating!! How long did these videos take to shoot? A full day?, several days?

Italy. I think he only said it once. 🙏🏼🌎💖🇺🇸. 🌞

I haven’t seen any workmen or gardeners. They don’t seem to maintain the cemetery. Very very sad.

Always peaceful in the cemetery should not be afraid to be there. They’re in the ground where God put them they’re in sacred ground. Should be afraid of the living not the dead. They’re in peace.

Mosquitos hide where it is cool. They like shade and moisture by condensation as in trees, shade, rock cracks (cemetary niches)...

Do you know how much of this was in existence during WW2?

Não ver seus vídeos é um pecado porque é um trabalho maravilhoso PARABÉNS e muito obriagada👏👏👏

Both my grandparents are buried in Napels . After so many years being buried the grave is dug up and if the body and the coffin are wrotten and the body is just bones. They put the bones in the wall with a picture and light. Due to not having much land for graves to stay in the ground for other buriels. Unless you have a family crypt and family's will stay in their coffins and be in the crypt. My grandma has a family crypt with her mum and dad ect. But my grandad did not so it was agreed grandma wanted to be with grandad so they decided who ever dies first will be buried and then put un the wall when ready too and grandad would be put with grandma when the time comes. My grandparents had a traditional Italian funeral. They lived in the uk so was transfered in the coffin by plane. The Hurst met us at naples airport to transfer to the village then transfered to a black Hurst pulled by 6 black horses a band lead the horses and petals was thrown on the floor . A notice had gone up a month before letting people know about the funeral. It was very beautiful.

Cemetery needs walkways to be swept, and weeds pulled. The headstones were amazing and so was the wrought iron gates ..

Hi from Dallas Texas

Was just thinking if I was wandering around there, I might have difficulty finding my way out unless there was sat nav available?

A lovely collection of vids ❤ how the F a comment from 2 weeks ago 🤔

What a labyrinth of death. Some beutifull monuments. Shame its not looked after better.

That is amazing , looks like a city for the dead

Magnifique. On dirait une ville tranquille

Whoever is building the underground have given themselves a very hefty bill . They were probably tacking the cheapest route 🤔🤦‍♀️🇬🇧

Your walking in a grave yard and actually came out with Dead end in one part. Other than that it's very pretty.

count me in for, half the rent

This place are remarkable

Carry fabric sheets in pockets keep mosquitoes away

Please tell me where you are it looks really interesting

Vous n'êtes pas bizarre vous êtes humain tout simplement

Hi dan can you please go to Sicily theres a church there where the dead are intered would love to see that if possible. Thank you 😊

That's a haunting carving of someone on their tombstone at 3:47 I assume it's the result of erosion over the years.

In the US we have Deep Woods OFF spray. You need something like that for your walkabouts. And wear long pants.

That was one of your best…

This looks like a place that Diane Keaton and another man made a movie in this area and it looks like the area that they used in the movie. "Hampstead it's called. "

The little city on the hill waiting for the mosquitos to get ya

I think the cemetary has water issues. Things on higher ground are in much better condition.

You are so funny. "A mouseleum just to hang around all day" hahaha. Just before you said it was infested with mosquitoes. Here in the US we wear long sleeves and full leg trousers for ticks which there would be plenty of in a place like that. Wish i could do a death walk with you. Way before i was born, my family would have picnics at the grave sites of family members.

Ruggerio family in South Philadelphia In Italian Market I grew up from

Dan you sure they were mosquitos and not coffin flies?

Air BNB😂😂 I'll join you..Im wierd too 😂😂

Our families reunited in death. many memories in time and past, time is the fire n wich we burn

I can't believe you are still in the same place. Maybe those wrapped bodies were placed there during the Covid pandemic. Italy got hit pretty bad among European countries. It is still beautiful and uneasy at the same time. Yet some look perfectly clean for having an open front door. It is stunningly amazing ... and to think their metro is going to run right underneath that cemetery. I really don't think that bodes well for people alive or death. God help them! 😮 🇮🇹 ☘️

I don't think so. I'm Italian, my uncle died during the pandemic, and there are very strict rules regarding deceased people with infectious diseases, not just COVID. It looks they are there since a long time. I'ts still unusual thet the grave is open like that, and there is no coffin.

I swear I thought I saw an Orb, and a loud whisper just towards the end of the video. Not sure how creepy it felt, but it sure LOOKED like it felt creepy!☠👻

I would like to have known yhe dates on some of the markers.

Cemeteries like cities . Italian always honour their dead. Live better in death than in life . Always amazes me 🐨💗
