Chopin

Pere Lachaise

I loved all the little shortcuts (hidden places) that we went through to get to various graves such as Chopin’s & Sarah Bernhardt’s.

According the Tour Guide Extraordinaire, Michael Osman, George Sands' daughter paid for
Chopin's crypt! Apparently, the daughter kept in good terms with the famous composer despite his falling out with her equally famous writer mother.
