And still more Paris cemeteries!

There are several other cemeteries within historic Paris that are still in use today, and where you are likely to find any number of notable French burials.

One of these cemeteries, Batignolles, has a number of fine funerary sculptures. It was not included with the other cemeteries visited due to the simple fact that the staff prevented me from taking photos anywhere in the cemetery.
