Père Lachaise Cemetery Tour with Audio Guide

An audio-guided walking tour around the final resting places of several notable personalities

On this self-guided tour, you will have the opportunity to take a walk around one of the most interesting cemeteries in Paris. The Père Lachaise Cemetery was established by Napoleon and houses over one million graves. It covers a large area, so you can download an audio guide app on your mobile device to lead you from one notable site to another.

As you wander, you'll see the final resting places of famous people such as Théodore Géricault, Oscar Wilde, Édith Piaff, Jim Morrison and Marcel Marceau. In addition to visiting their burial sites, you can learn more about their significant lives from your audio guide.
