Montmartre Cemetery (Fr: Cimetière de Montmartre) is a famous cemetery located at 37 Avenue Samson, in the 18th arrondissement of Paris, France.
Cemeteries had been banned from Paris since the shutting down of
the Cimetière des Innocents in 1786, as they presented health
hazards. Several new cemeteries replaced all the Parisian ones,
outside the precincts of the capital, in the early 19th century:
Montmartre in the north, Père-Lachaise
Cemetery in the east, Passy Cemetery
in the west and Montparnasse
Cemetery in the south.
Located west of the Butte, near the beginning of Rue
Caulaincourt in Place
Clichy, the cemetery in the Montmartre quarter
of Paris is built below street level in the hollow of an old
quarry with its
entrance on Avenue Rachel under Rue Caulaincourt. The cemetery
epitomizes the artsy, quixotic, gentle, almost whimsical Paris that
every romantic visitor secretly cherishes.
A popular tourist destination, it is the final resting place for
many famous artists who lived and worked in the Montmartre area. A
few of the famous buried in the Montmartre Cemetery are:

as the puppet Petrouchka.]] ]] ]] ]]
