The result is an impressive collection of chapels, crypts, statues and works by renowned artists such as Giacomo Manzù and Francesco Messina. A veritable open-air museum, each tomb is a monumental folly; wander among the tombs to spot, for example, a scale reproduction of the Leaning Tower of Pisa...

J'ai appris que ce cimetière faisait partie d'une route européenne des cimetières remarquables, comme le Père Lachaise je suppose.
Les caveaux sont imposants et impressionnants. La visite est surprenante allée après allée. Prevoir au moins 2 à 3 h pour pouvoir tout voir!
