Cimetière protestant de Nîmes, Protestant cemetery in Nîmes, France.

The Protestant Cemetery of Nîmes contains 6000 graves spread across a former vineyard and olive grove area on the outskirts of the city.

Established in 1776 under King Louis XVI, this cemetery represents the first royal authorization for Protestants to maintain their own burial ground in France.

The Immortality statue, created by sculptor Pradier in the early 19th century, stands two meters tall and received historical monument status in 1911.

The cemetery is located at 17 bis Avenue du Pasteur-Paul-Brunel and maintains 2720 active graves among its numerous historical burial sites.

Initial burials took place exclusively at dawn or dusk, reflecting the religious restrictions of the period.
