Pere Lachaise Cemetery

This is Paris' most prestigious cemetery.  The land was bought by Napoleon for the public and received its first customer in 1804.

We stopped at Gambetta Station to enter the higher end of the cemetery as this will allow us to walk downhill in the cemetery

Tomb of Champollion

Tomb of Jim Morrison

Tomb of Chopin

The main entrance to the cemetery

Visiting cemeteries may not appeal to many tourists. But this is what we enjoy doing. We consider them to be museums of funerary art.

St Sulpice

St Sulpice is a Roman  Catholic church built in 1646.

It is because of the Da Vinci Code that we wanted to visit this church

The west facade with two different towers

Tomb of de Gergy

He undertook the completion of St Sulpice

The Confessional

Virgin Mary and Child

St Peter

Gnomon (Meridian Line)

This gnomon is used to determine the date of Easter each year. The sun's ray will enter the church through a small opening in the south transept and will rest on the line through out the year until it reaches the obelisk on spring and autumn equinox.

The Obelisk

This is where Silas follows the line to the obelisk in his quest for the keystone in the Da Vinci Code
