About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The cemetery is located on the outskirts of the quiet village of Lourmarin, Provence and is the final resting place of Nobel Prize recipient author Albert Camus. The location is beautiful with the mountain ranges in the background. Part of the cemetery has tall upright markers with angel statues and wrought iron fencing around the plots, while another area has flat slabs or short simple markers that are very close together. The entire cemetery is unkept with weeds growing freely. In 2009, the French government started plans to have Camus' remains exhumed and reinterred at the Pantheon in Paris, the last resting place of many illustrious French authors, but the plans failed meeting with the opposition of Camus's family. With his marker being flat with the name worn, his burial site is somewhat difficult to locate.
