Description
Paris has launched a lottery to restore some of the spectacular funerary monuments within the overcrowded cemeteries of Père-Lachaise, Montparnasse and Montmartre. Gravestones and monuments in Parisian cemeteries are maintained by families, not the city, and some graves can become abandoned and decrepit over time. So, Paris officials would like residents to come in, fix up monuments and be buried alongside the likes of Jim Morrison, Edith Piaf and Oscar Wilde. Hosts Marco Werman and Carolyn Beeler explain.
