Cemetery of Terre Cabade, Protected heritage cemetery in Toulouse, France
The Terre Cabade Cemetery extends across 33 hectares on the Jolimont hillside, containing 28,000 tombs and 20,000 burial vaults within its grounds.
Established in 1840 by architect Urbain Vitry, the cemetery expanded with the addition of Salonika Cemetery in 1915 and Hérédia Cemetery in the late 20th century.
The neo-Egyptian style entrance features two brick obelisks topped with golden pyramids and pavilions decorated with papyriform columns, receiving monument status in 2019.
The cemetery maintains daily operations from 8:00 to 18:00 and includes dedicated parking spaces for visitors with disabilities both inside and near the grounds.
The name Terre Cabade derives from Occitan 'terra cavada' meaning excavated earth, referencing the location's previous function as a brickmaking site.
