Cimetière de la Madeleine in Amiens, a romantic place with aromatic trees and surprising and moving graves

Cimetière de la Madeleine is famous throughout France for its beauty and because it is the tomb of Jules Verne, the pride of all Samarans. As you approach his grave, you can observe a representation of the author lifting the stone from his tomb to free himself from it. The epitaph underlines this desire for freedom: "Towards immortality and eternal youth". One is almost embarrassed to find the romantic place, with its mixed tree species and its sometimes surprising and moving tombs (eleven of them are listed).

Le cimetière de la Madeleine est désormais la demeure de Jules Verne et autres plus ou moins illustres, mais aussi un joli parc. A visiter toute l’année pendant votre saison préférée !

CIMETIERE LA MADELAINE
J'ai participé à une visite guidée dans ce cimetière, c'est fort intéressant : jules verne, la famille duthoit et bien d'autres dont je ne connaissais pas l'existence. Il est immense donc j'y retournerai .

Certes, il s'agit d'un cimetière mais c'est d'abord un espace paysager. Le lieu est magnifique et nous allons régulièrement nous y promener. A voir, la tombe de Jules Verne et d'autres magnifiques.

Après la visite de la maison de Jules Verne on a forcément envie de voir où il enterrait et on se dirige tout naturellement vers le cimetière de la Madeleine qui est un des plus beaux cimetières romantiques du 19ème siècle. Se promener à travers toutes les allées et remarquer ces magnifiques tombeaux , quelle belle promenade qui ne fait que nous prouver la prospérité de la ville d'Amiens à cette époque.

This cemetery is to visit. I had never guided tour and the stele of the tomb of Jules Verne is a true work of art in itself. You can see the deceased for trying to leave his tomb with a hand pointed towards the sky.
