The world’s most visited cemetery was founded in 1804, and initially attracted few funerals because of its distance from the city centre. The authorities responded by exhuming famous remains and resettling them here. Their marketing ploy worked and Cimetière du Père Lachaise has been Paris’ most fashionable final address ever since.
Famous Occupants
Paris residency was the only criterion needed to be buried in Père Lachaise, hence the cemetery’s cosmopolitan population, which includes Irish playright Oscar Wilde and 1960s rock god Jim Morrison. Other famous occupants buried here are the composer Chopin; the playwright Molière; the poet Apollinaire; writers Balzac, Proust, Gertrude Stein and Colette; the actors Simone Signoret, Sarah Bernhardt and Yves Montand; the painters Pissarro, Seurat, Modigliani and Delacroix; the chanteuse Édith Piaf alongside her two-year-old daughter; and the dancer Isadora Duncan.
Visiting
The cemetery has five entrances, two of which are on bd de Ménilmontant.

世界上访问量最大的墓地建于1804年,由于距离市中心很近,最初吸引了很少的葬礼。当局通过挖掘着名的遗体并将其重新安置在这里作出回应。他们的营销策略奏效了,拉雪兹神父公墓一直是巴黎最时尚的最终演说。
着名的居住者
巴黎居住是唯一需要被埋葬在拉雪兹神殿的标准,因此墓地的国际化人口包括爱尔兰版权的奥斯卡王尔德和20世纪60年代的摇滚神吉姆莫里森。其他着名的占领者是作曲家肖邦;剧作家莫里哀;诗人阿波利奈尔;作家巴尔扎克,普鲁斯特,格特鲁德斯坦和科莱特;演员Simone Signoret,Sarah Bernhardt和Yves Montand;画家Pissarro,Seurat,Modigliani和Delacroix;女主人ÉdithPiaf和她两岁的女儿在一起;和舞者伊莎多拉邓肯。
