Close to the Sacré-Coeur, at the Montmartre summit, this modest cemetery is in the calm, far from the crowds of tourists travelling that of Père-Lachaise or Montparnasse. By lifting the head, above family chapels and crosses on the tombs, the dome of the basilica is explored. Its narrow alleys and tombstones decorated in a Parisian style have nothing to do with the most famous tombs of Paris. Confidential and preserved, it is a place of contemplation more than walking. However, its position close to the Sacré-Coeur attracts some curious, while the most passionate French culture can discover at random their between of the tombs of the painter Maurice Utrillo, Marcel Aymé or Marcel Meat.

Ou repose des personnalités qui ont fait l'histoire de Montmatre.
Dernièrement la célébrité : Michou qui a contribué à enrichir la butte par son célèbre restaurant cabaret.
Et j'en oublie d'autres personnes connues (Maurice Utrillo, Marcel Carne....) ou inconnus.
Ceci dans un espace,un peu escarpé calme et bien entretenu.
The century itself is a great size and it’s on a hill, but the entrance is a little bit hidden and it only has one, so you can walk past it and miss it quite easily.
Is you’re in the area then come and have a wonder here, it will take you about 45 minuets to walk at a slow pace and take in the many different tombs, colourful flowers and trees, as well as the secret views of the church on the hill.
