Eastern Cemetery, Lille, France

[visited 16 September 2016]

The Eastern Cemetery in Lille is just a short 15-minute walk from the city's central train station and a wonderful place to spend a lovely afternoon -- which is what we did in early autumn of 2016.

I've included a map in a previous post or you can stop at the office located just inside the main entrance.Oh, and you might be told you can't take photos - just say you want to shoot the sculpture only, NOT the names.
