Paris launches lottery offering burial plots near Piaf, Morrison, and Oscar Wilde

Wait 5 sec.

Paris is offering a unique lottery for burial plots in its most famous cemeteries. Residents can win a spot near cultural icons like Jim Morrison and Edith Piaf. The catch is they must first restore abandoned graves. This initiative aims to preserve history and address a long-standing shortage of burial space in the city. Applications are open until December 31.
