Back Stories: Life beyond death

European Cemeteries Route

Through its project Stories, the European Cemeteries Route allows readers and travelers to discover cemeteries with new eyes, to understand them not only as places of death, but also as places of life. Members of the European Cemeteries Route network are invited to share their stories or anecdotes of a particular monument to be displayed online.

To read the “Legend of the crying lovers”, the “Hands of madness” or “The man who tried to kill Hitler”, visit the European Cemeteries Route website.
