Héloïse and Abélard's tomb, Medieval lovers' tomb in Père Lachaise Cemetery, France.

The monument of Héloïse and Abélard is a neo-Gothic structure in Père-Lachaise Cemetery, Paris. It has a steep gabled roof with a trefoil opening and rosettes, and an arcade of three pointed arches on slender columns. Inside, a recumbent figure lies on a low base carved with reliefs, behind a dark metal fence.

Abélard died in 1142 at the Saint-Marcel priory and was buried at the Paraclet abbey, which the couple had founded; Héloïse was buried beside him there in 1164. The remains were moved to Nogent-sur-Seine in 1792, then to Alexandre Lenoir's museum of French monuments in Paris in 1800. Lenoir assembled the neo-Gothic tomb from pieces taken from other monuments, and it was inaugurated on 27 April 1807. In 1817 the monument was transferred to Père-Lachaise and unveiled there on 6 November.

Héloïse founded a yearly rite for Abélard at the Paraclet, sung on the anniversary of his death, which fell at Easter; the ceremony included the Nénie d'Abélard, a dialogue oration whose music is lost. The abbey was dissolved on 30 March 1792, but local people kept the procession going for a time. The monument was inaugurated on 27 April 1807 in Alexandre Lenoir's museum courtyard, where Empress Joséphine walked during a torchlight retreat.

The tomb sits along a main pathway through the cemetery with clear directional markers to guide you. Wear comfortable walking shoes as the grounds are uneven with slopes and require considerable walking to explore.

The monument is a composite: only Abélard's recumbent figure and the tomb's high reliefs come from the 1142 tomb at the Saint-Marcel priory. The columns were brought from the abbey of Saint-Denis, the spire from the Grands-Carmes church in Metz, and the relief from Royaumont abbey; Héloïse's head was carved by Pierre-Nicolas Beauvallet.
