To the east of the centre, located in a small forest, this cemetery has a memorial honouring Napoleon's soldiers who died of starvation or wounds in Vilnius during the Russian retreat. The remains of 2,000 of them were discovered in 2002. There are also graves of Polish soldiers, and those of the victims of the Soviet special forces killed on 13 January 1991. Moving! If you walk through the park, you will find beautiful views of Vilnius.

mérite une visite
ce cimetière alterne entre des tombes soviétiques, des croix "locales" en bois et un hommage aux soldats de napoléon. C'est un peu le "père lachaise" de la ville. Ce cimetière mérite une visite.

un lieu de repos .... ce cimetière date de 1809, il a été implanté sur des collines et offre une ballade historique et champêtre. des soldats de Napoléon, des victimes des combats de l'indépendance de 1991, des dignitaires communistes...etc...
insolite et charmant
