Because in France, we lease our grave we don’t buy it. 10/30/50 years. If the family does not renew the concession , it is resold. Some concessions were sold in perpetuity like at the Père Lachaise for the oldest ones, a long time ago. However, the family must maintain the grave, and if it falls in disarray, it is resold. The municipality will try to contact the family first. If the family does not answer, then the cemetery will put a sign for about two years to let them know about the situation. If no one answer, they resell the grave , the only exception are for famous people, which usually the cemetery takes care of it. They know they attract tourists and it’s part of the French heritage. The leftover remains are put in an ossuary or if the grave is reused by the same family they simply put the remaining bones below the new burial. Since 1791 cemeteries belong to the municipalities ,before the church. If you, for instance, as an American would happen to die anywhere in France, you have the right to be buried in the cemetery of the locality that you passed regardless of residence status. They no longer sell concessions in perpetuity. Concessions can be relatively cheap from couple hundred dollars to couple thousand depending on the cemetery. I went to the Paris website to look at the availabilities. There are 17 cemeteries in Paris “intra muro” (in the city itself) There were 171 places available for 5000 demands in 2017. Most of these beautiful mausoleums are being repurposed as columbarium for ashes or 30 years concessions for burial. Burial cost is 6300 Euros for Paris. 400 in my village for 30/50 years. In America we get a property deed because we own our grave, which is the reason we are called property owners, and you need a judge order to re-open a grave. In France the dead are tenants and the cemetery manager do the job. In the small villages like where my father is buried since last year, if they don’t need the space they wont force the lease term until they need the spot. All cemeteries in France have a wall around them ,gates,with opening and closing hours. In big cities, they lock them up at night to prevent vandalism ,smaller villages like mine they don’t. By the gate, there is a map of the cemetery , and it shows the rows with concession lengths. City hall is the concession office. Also, a difference of custom between the two countries . In France we do not have the right to keep our loved one ashes at home. They must be interned or dispersed with an official present. you have to go to a funeral home. When I will pass in America, someone will have to take my ashes to the French consulate, who will put a wax seal on the box and upon arriving in France they would have to be delivered to a funeral home. I hope my explanation will shed some light. If you need to know more, let me know.

24:40 This statue is Mr Jean-Joseph Carriès who was born on 15 Feb 1855, passed away on 01 Jul 1894. He was a famous French sculptor, ceramist and miniaturist . He is considered the founder of the Art Nouveau, best remembered for the inventive and technically-advanced Japoniste stoneware. He was most instrumental in bringing about the elevation of pottery from a craft to an art form. His works exhibited at the Salon du Champ-de-Mars in 1892 were widely acclaimed and were acquired by the French Ministry of Culture and by a museum in Hamburg, Germany.

Alain Bashung (born Alain Claude Baschung, French pronunciation: ​[alɛ̃ klod baʃuŋ]; 1 December 1947 - 14 March 2009) was a French singer, songwriter and actor. Credited with reviving the French chanson in "a time of French musical turmoil",[2] he is often regarded in his home country as the most important French rock musician after Serge Gainsbourg.[3] He rose to prominence in the early 1980s with hit songs such as "Gaby oh Gaby" and "Vertige de l'amour", and later had a string of hit records from the 1990s onward, such as "Osez Joséphine", "Ma petite entreprise" and "La nuit je mens". He has had an influence on many later French artists, and is the most awarded artist in the Victoires de la Musique history with 12 victories obtained throughout his career.

So beneath the narrow mausoleums are larger crypts? Most of the cemetery's substructure must be crypts tightly built against each other. Anyone know to what extent (if any) the govt. subsidizes repairs and maintenance of the cemetery?

As someone raised in a funeral home, very familiar with the industry of death..It’s really amazing to ponder how much society respected their elders and honored them when they died. Nowadays, people barely think about their grandparents (alive or passed), or honoring their family history. I also follow the abandoned house/mansion genre on here and house after house, just every family photo and things once held precious, just left to rot. I mean, few people would bother sacrificing for a basic headstone much less the intricate statues and stone carvings to honor their loved ones centuries ago. It makes me sad. I know most of your viewers aren’t this way, but it’s certain that a segment of our society in general has shifted from caring as much. There’s families with money but not willing to spend it on burials because it has no immediate self gratification, some of the things people say is shockingly selfish.
