Known as Bordeaux's answer to Paris's famous Père Lachaise cemetry, many well-known people are buried here, including Goya, Lacour, Flora Tristan and Gauguin's grandmother. Like its larger counterpart, it is also home to an amazing variety of monuments and thus offers a window onto the world of nineteenth century sculpture. Its suitably peaceful atmosphere is also reminiscent of the Parisian cemetry.
