THE OLD CASTLE CEMETERY
Read moreIn the Middle Ages, Menton Castle stands at the top of Colla Hill hill, 78 m above sea level. Very experienced for nearly three centuries, the site will finally be abandoned in 1650. The remains of the castle were acquired by the commune of Menton in 1807: the place is then turned into a graveyard. The burials of the mentonnaises families surround those of the foreign colonies. Composed of superimposed terraces, each is assigned to a particular religion or nationality. In these places, the famous architect Tersling built most of the beautiful mansions of the late th century in the region, but also the inventor of Rugby Webb, as well as a few Russian princes with famous names such as Troubetzkoï or Volkonski. The mausoleum of the Polish Princess Janina Jelowickich Lewandowska is certainly the most beautiful of the old cemetery: the statue that dominates it represents the flight of a young woman out of her casket. From the cemetery, beautiful views of the old town, the sea and the coast, from Cape Martin to Mortola point in Italy.
