Lonely Planet review for Cimetière de Montmartre

The most famous cemetery in Paris after Père Lachaise, Cimetière de Montmartre was established in 1798. It contains the graves of writers Émile Zola, Alexandre Dumas and Stendhal; composer Jacques Offenbach; artist Edgar Degas; film director François Truffaut; and dancer Vaslav Nijinsky – among others. The entrance closest to the Butte de Montmartre is at the end of av Rachel, just off bd de Clichy or down the stairs from 10 rue Caulaincourt. Maps showing the location of the tombs are available free at that entrance.
