Cemetery of San Pietro, Historic cemetery in Avigliana, Italy
The cemetery features stone memorials and tombs arranged across multiple terraced levels, creating an architectural landscape against the mountain backdrop.
The cemetery grounds were established following the transformation of San Pietro church, which dates back to the 11th century under Turin's episcopal jurisdiction.
