Within the Cimetiere d’Ormesson-sur-Marne walls, imagine stories etched in stone. This is not just a cemetery. It is a chronicle of lives lived and legacies left behind.
The Cimetiere d’Ormesson-sur-Marne is the communal cemetery of Ormesson-sur-Marne. The town resides in the Val-de-Marne. This vast, modern cemetery has a unique appearance. Its paths intersect at right angles.
Older tombs have vanished. This gives it a monotone look. All funerary chapels were destroyed. However, a special enclosure holds members of the Lefèvre d’Ormesson family. Only a few trimmed trees shade the two main paths.
Among those interred here is Henri-François de Paule d’Ormesson. He lived from 1751 to 1808. He served as a State Councilor. He was also an intendant of finance. Wladimir d’Ormesson rests here too. Born in 1888, he died in 1973. He was a French ambassador and an academician.
Philippe Campion also lies here. He was the son of Marcel Campion.
You can find the tomb of Count Wladimir d’Ormesson and his family. A monument honors the dead.
