Great Cemeteries Of The World
(28-Part Series)
|
From Potter’s Fields to the Pyramids, we have been as creative in housing the dead as we have in housing the living. It is this fascination with the tombstone, vault or burial plot, and our never-ending curiosity about their inhabitants, that intrigues every visitor to a cemetery. Among the residents of these famous cemeteries: Sarah Bernhardt, Moliere, Oscar Wilde, Karl Marx, Douglas Fairbanks, James Joyce, Al Capone, Michelangelo, Galileo, Tchaikovsky, Beethoven, Mozart and Antonio Salieri.
