cemeteries in the neighbourhood of  La Calestienne

As (nearly) everywhere it's worth to visit the local cemeteries: some of them merit your passage only by their location; others are strew with a mix of exceptionally good conserved monuments and dilapidated decoratif elements, which in their way symbolise the temporarily character of our passage on earth.

The abolition of the perpetual concessions has created the danger of a prematurely disappearance of many funeral monuments. In this context it's gratifying that the municipality of Viroinval has started a project for the revalorisation of the nineteen and early twentiest century crosses in cast iron.
