This visit was created in 2020, in response to the exhibition " Grenoble and its artists in the 19th century" proposed by the Grenoble Museum. Thus, we invite you to discover the presence of artists, sculptors and painters who rest at the Saint-Roch cemetery in Grenoble.
Sculptors, during their lifetime they built remarkable funerary works for their contemporaries, before resting there themselves in modest graves. Artists-painters, they found their last home there.
By going to meet these famous dead who left their imprint in our city, our museums and our cemetery, it is the intense artistic life that animated our city and the remarkable creativity that contributed to mark the urban art of Grenoble in the nineteenth century, that will be brought to your attention.
