Grave of Fitz-James, Historic grave in Cimetière du Calvaire, 18th arrondissement of Paris, France.
The Grave of Fitz-James occupies a modest plot within the small Cimetière du Calvaire, surrounded by weathered stone walls and simple monuments dating from the early 19th century.
Édouard Fitz-James (1776-1838), member of the noble Fitz-James family, was known for demanding the death sentence of Marshal Ney during the Restoration period following Napoleon's defeat.
The grave represents the aristocratic families who resided in Montmartre, reflecting the social stratification and political upheavals that marked early 19th-century French society.
Visitors can access the cemetery only on November 1st each year during free guided tours in French, as the site remains closed throughout the rest of the year.
The tomb bears the number 67 in the cemetery's cataloging system and serves as the final resting place for multiple members of the Fitz-James lineage.
