Menton, France
Cimetière du Vieux Château is a historic hilltop cemetery above Menton’s old town, prized for its peaceful atmosphere, sea views, and striking setting beside the ruins of the old castle. Its terraces hold ornate tombs and memorials reflecting the town’s French, Italian, and British connections, including graves of notable residents and visitors. A visit suits travelers interested in local history, architecture, or quiet panoramic walks, though the uphill climb may be less appealing in hot weather.
