A relatively modest grave set amongst the spectacular tombs of so many others but clearly marked with photographs, objects, a protective fence and a tree wrapped in bubblegum. People keep moving the pin on Maps to the wrong side of the path and uploading images of completely different things which can cause some confusion but plan carefully with the correct details and site map and it's easy to find. The cemetery closed at 6pm.when we were there and all visitors are ushered out to the sounds of ringing bells, check the opening times before you go as there's so many amazing things to see here.

I had to visit the Lizard King while in Paris. Cimetière du Père Lachaise is one of the most beautiful cemeteries I've ever walked through.

One of the highlights of my life. Finding the grave is part of the journey (do your research before you go!) A really special experience in a beautiful (and a little somber of course) location. The history held there is just amazing.

Once in a lifetime trip to see his final resting place. My hotel was 20mins away so it was now or never. I must admit that the graveyard needs a month to explore, I've seen a few, but this is the size of a small town! Back to his grave, small un assuming, fenced off but you can see his grave. A very nice adventure to pay my respects.

We visited the grave while wondering in the cemetery, on a nice and a bit cold Parisian winter weekend. The Cemetery is really nice and a major attraction, and I took this picture to send to a friend who'se also Doors fan. That friend is a professor who studied in UCLA, where - guess who?- Jim Morrison also studied! Morrison soon dropped out of university to pursue his musical career 🎶🎶

It was with great honor to be able to visit the Doors frontman, Jim Morrison's grave. Always sad when a master of the arts is lost. R.I.P. Jim. "Death makes angels of us all and gives us wings where we had shoulders smooth as ravens claws." - Jim Morrison.

The cemetery is worth going to but they have a fence around Jim Morrison tomb and I don’t think it’s worth the trip. A walk in the cemetery is though, certainly a beautiful gothic cemetery

The Necropolis is great. The tomb is not that fancy for non-fan. It is in Père Lachaise Cemetery. In addition to Jim Morrisons's grave, you can appreciate tombstone of other important people and its arts. The park can be good place for recreation. There is a viewpoint on the hill too. the temperature here can be chill.

A fan of the Doors and Jim himself, worth paying my respects at Jim's tomb, rest in peace and fly high!

One of the greatest Artist! Buts not nice the fence. Also the people looks disabled, when "THE END" is playing respectfully.... they are THINKING, NOT POSSIBLE AT A SIGHTSEEINGPOINT! ! ! THEY DON'T HAVE A CLUE/PLAN WHO THIS MAN WAS! ! ! Stupid TOURISTS!

Morrison died on July 3, 1971 at age 27 . Morrison is buried in Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris, one of the city's most visited tourist attractions. James Douglas "Jim" Morrison (December 8, 1943 – July 3, 1971) was an American singer-songwriter and poet, best remembered as the lead singer rock band The Doors. From a young age, Morrison developed an alcohol dependency which led to his death at the age of 27 in Paris. He is alleged to have died of a heroin overdose, but as no autopsy was performed, the exact cause of his death is still disputed. The Greek phrase "ΚΑΤΑ ΤΟΝ ΔΑΙΜΟΝΑ ΕΑΥΤΟΥ" may be translated in several ways, including as "do what thou wilt" or " true to your own spirit"

This is the tombe of Jim Morrison, lead singer of the Doors. It probably is still the most popular tomb on Père Lachaise. There are gates to prevent fans to get too near the grave. The grave and the tombstone have been damaged before. This is not the original tombstone.

Plain grave of a famous song writer. A fence in the way.

The tomb of Jim Morrison in the Père Lachaise cimetery is a must see for a lot of people. In all honesty it's not particularly worth visiting unless you are a huge fan. There is also a strange tree with gum stuck to it. I'm not too sure what that was about.

Visited the final resting place of the frontman for the iconic band, The Doors.

One and best!! It was an honor!! What a pity that we couldn't enter inside of the borders to see the grave better.. But it was a life goal to go there!!

The grave had no official marker until French officials placed a shield over it, which was stolen in 1973. In 1981, Croatian sculptor Mladen Mikulin voluntarily – with the approval of the cemetery curators – placed a marble bust of his own design and a new gravestone with Morrison's name at the grave to commemorate the tenth anniversary of Morrison's death; the bust was defaced through the years by vandals and later stolen in 1988.Mikulin made another bust of Morrison in 1989 and a bronze portrait ("death mask") of him in 2001; neither piece is at the gravesite. In 1990, Morrison's father, George Stephen Morrison, after a consultation with E. Nicholas Genovese, Professor of Classics and Humanities, San Diego State University, placed a flat stone on the grave. The bronze plaque thereon bears the Greek inscription: ΚΑΤΑ ΤΟΝ ΔΑΙΜΟΝΑ ΕΑΥΤΟΥ, usually translated as "true to his own spirit" or "according to his own daemon". This is all according to wikipedia.

(Translated by Google) I dreamed that one day I would be there and I did it. I could never be closer to Jim than to Per Lachaise Cemetery because he died before I was born. His grave is modest, they surrounded it with a metal fence because people paid him homage in various unconventional ways. The tree by the grave is wrapped in a mat because people stick the discharged chewing gum there. It's not hard to get there, I'll be back there again. (Original) Marzyłam, że kiedyś tam będę i udało się. Nigdy nie mogłabym być bliżej Jima niż na cmentarzu Per Lachaise, ponieważ umarł zanim się urodziłam. Jego grób jest skromny, otoczyli go metalowym płotem bo ludzie oddawali mu hołd na różne niekonwencjonalne sposoby. Drzewo przy grobie, owinięte jest matą, ponieważ ludzie przyklejają tam wyrzute gumy do żucia. Nie jest trudno tam trafić, jeszcze tam wrócę.

We wanted to visit Jim Morrison‘s tomb only and were very positively surprised by beauty and atmosphere of cimetière père lachaise.

Jim was a very complex individual. He consciously created a revolutionary public persona which he later regretted. He is remembered today as a legendary rock star. But his true vocation was probably journalism and/or filmmaking. Ironically, the idolatry that continues even today greatly destroyed him. A truly happy artist does not become an alcoholic by the age 25, while dying from cardiac arrest due to a heroin overdose at age 27. Jim was obviously a very unhappy person. He was privately introverted.

Never again will there be such a unique vocalist and poet. There is a fence because of the vandals who defaced the grave before. They should be ashamed of themselves!

5/9/22 Đi thăm viếng my hero Jim Morrison. One of the greatest artists. Song writer. Poet. Lead singer. Lyricist ever. 💞✌

I visited Jim's resting place when I was on a school trip to Paris in 1997. The picture within this search of the gravestone is actually different now. The original was taller, thinner and absolutely covered in graffiti. Great to pay homage to one of many geniuses, taken far too long. #27club

Finally got to visit the lizard kings resting place. A truly wonderful place, very moving experience. The fenced off area around is a bit sad to see but obviously nessassary. If you're a fan it's a must see...

In 1985, while my husband and I were stationed in Germany, we went on a trip to Paris. I stumbled on Jim Morrison's grave not far from the famous "Painters Square." What an unexpected find. Couldn't believe it. Interesting trip and honored to pay our respects. (Date doesn't go back to 1985 hence the 2000.)

Still beautiful but nowadays surrounded by fences... Can't go to the grave to put some flowers or other gifts for Jim. Put some incense sticks behind the fence...

(Translated by Google) The place is surrounded by offerings, so much that they had to fence a large part of the grave (I guess that did not make the relatives of those who are buried nearby happy). I truly found the grave by mistake, I was not looking for this particular place. A wooden grid covers a tree in which, until they placed the mat, the visitors left gum stuck in a somewhat strange behavior. They also leave bands to fasten the hair or laces tied to the fence, but that is not so unpleasant. Despite these issues, the place is a place of worship. Surely it is the most visited grave in the cemetery, regardless of my opinion. Jim Morrison was buried in Père-Lachaise because he was hypnotized as he walked through the narrow streets and wanted to stay there, surrounded by writers, musicians and personalities forever. I think I can understand it. (Original) El lugar está rodeado de ofrendas, tanto que tuvieron que vallar gran parte de la tumba (supongo que eso no puso contentos a los familiares de quienes están sepultados cerca). Verdaderamente encontré la tumba por descuido, no estaba buscando este lugar en particular. Una rejilla de madera recubre un árbol en el que, hasta que colocaran la esterilla, los visitantes dejaban pegados chicles en una conducta un tanto extraña. También dejan bandas para sujetar el pelo o cordones atados al vallado, pero eso no resulta tan desagradable. Pese a estas cuestiones, el lugar es un sitio de culto. Seguramente sea la tumba más visitada del cementerio, independientemente de cual sea mi opinión al respecto. Jim Morrison fue sepultado en Père-Lachaise porque quedó hipnotizado al recorrer sus callejuelas y quiso quedarse ahí, rodeado de escritores, músicos y personalidades para siempre. Creo que puedo entenderlo.

Hidden, not as located in Google maps.

You won't see his bust here anymore. I saw it in the spring of 83'. Many young Parisians hanging out and sharing a smoke. It was beautiful

(Translated by Google) The grave has been changed several times. Certainly the most visited ever. (Original) La tomba è stata cambiata diverse volte. Sicuramente la più visitata in assoluto.

(Translated by Google) Much name but little presence. Small, surrounded by fences and many other larger tombs, although always with offerings. Although it is well marked in Google, it is easy to pass by, it is not on the street front. You have to be a fan to not be disappointed. (Original) Mucho nombre pero poca presencia. Pequeña, rodeada de vallas y muchas otras tumbas de mayor tamaño, aunque siempre con ofrendas. Aunque está bien señalada en Google, es fácil pasar de largo, no queda en primera línea de calle. Hay que ser muy fan para no quedar decepcionado.

(Translated by Google) I went there once, but this trip was magical ... We met a gentleman who told us that he came every day, he accompanied us near the graves of the greatest and told us the related anecdotes to the character. We were able to admire the tombs of Molière, Jim Morrison, Georges Moustaki, Gerico and many others. You need to bring comfortable shoes, because the cemetery is immensely large! But personally I recommend this magical place! (Original) J'y suis aller une fois, mais ce voyage était magique... Nous avons rencontré un monsieur qui nous a dit qu'il venait tous les jours, il nous a accompagné près des tombes des plus grands et nous a raconté les anecdotes liées au personnage. Nous avons pu y admirer la tombe de Molière, Jim Morrison, Georges Moustaki, Gerico et bien d'autres. Il faut prévoir des chaussures pour marcher confortables, parce que le cimetière est immensément grand ! Mais, personnellement je recommande ce lieu magique !

Mr MoJo risin! Jim....I've got tickets to see Robbie play at the Saint Rocke in Hermosa Beach in January! Lets go!!!!

(Translated by Google) I was told he was dead. I confirm, he is indeed dead. We see his grave. (Original) On m'avait dit qu'il était mort. Je confirme, il est bien mort. On voie sa tombe.

The end is here.

(Translated by Google) Unique experience visiting such a famous place. the cemetery is beautiful and easily accessible. (Original) Experiência única visitar um local tão famoso. o Cemitério é lindo e de fácil acesso.

I am glad Jim rests in such a beautiful place

"No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn..." Simply the best attraction in Paris. Definitely worth the pilgrimage. If you want even a remote chance of spending a quiet 5 minutes by yourself, in the presence of the Lizard King himself, in such picturesque surroundings, I would humbly suggest you get to the cemetery as it opens at 8am, then make your way briskly to his tomb.

(Translated by Google) There is nothing left on Jim Morrisson's grave, it seems to me that his remains are no longer there, that's probably why! Despite everything, barriers prevent you from approaching the tomb. (Original) Il n'y a plus rien sur la tombe de Jim Morrisson il me semble que sa dépouille ne s'y trouve plus c'est sans doute pour ça ! Malgré tout des barrières empêchent de s'approcher de la tombe .

Amazing and sad. Happy i went and reflected on the Doors.

(Translated by Google) Visited Jim's last home ... (Original) Посетил последний приют Джима ...

Looking good 👌

(Translated by Google) Very disappointed, I saw other tombs of anonymous people much more interesting in this mythical place (Original) Très déçu, j'ai vu d'autres tombes d'anonymes beaucoup plus intéressantes dans ce lieu mythique

(Translated by Google) Mythical grave of rocker Jim Morrison, full of messages, packs of cigars, bottles of liquor. Jim Morrison committed suicide in Paris and is in this buried cemetery (Original) Mítica tumba del rockero Jim Morrison, llena de mensajes, cajetillas de tabacos, botellas de licor. Jim Morrison se suicido en Paris y esta en este cementerio enterrado

(Translated by Google) A rather curious grave because the fans come to deposit flowers and photos but also bottles of alcohol and cigarettes. But what intrigues me the most is the tree that is covered in chewing gum (Original) Une tombe assez curieuse car les fans viennent déposer des fleurs et des photos mais aussi des bouteilles d'alcool et des cigarettes. Mais ce qui m'intrigue le plus, c'est l'arbre qui est recouvert de chewing gum

Memorable Place

(Translated by Google) if you like chewing gum .... (Original) si vous aimez les chewing gums....

I was lucky to find my way here in 1988. Now I am thankful that there was know gate or any obstructions. It was a three day tour of Paris. I got off the bus found the cemetery myself. Best, most memorable part of the weekend. RIP Lizzard King

It was something unbelievable. I enjoyed walk around there.

(Translated by Google) The tomb of the myth of music, much loved and visited by his fans (Original) La tomba del mito della musica, molto amata e visitata dai suoi fans

If you're a Doors fan it's a must see. Above that the cemetery its self is amazing!

The "White Salamander:" The Lizard King. Only one way to do anything, knowing your "only friend." Kata Ton Daimona Eatoy! Rest your soul in having found The Way!

(Translated by Google) Magic ! Amazing to see the gatherings around! (Original) Magique ! Incroyable de voir les rassemblements autour !

RIP Jim Morrison

(Translated by Google) Crowded by tourists. One of the main stops for a visit to the Paris necropolis. (Original) Tłumnie odwiedzany przez turystów. Jeden z głównych przystanków przy wizycie na paryskiej nekropolii.

(Translated by Google) The most famous cemetery in the world is here in Paris, disturbing even during the day with the presence of crows, it transmits a certain feline thrill along the back ... You can find the tomb of Jim Morrison and Oscar Wilde, the famous Edith Piaf and the famous Chopin. Surely the best known the most famous is the most visited among those mentioned is that of Jim Morrison. He presents a photo of himself as a young man (in the photo he was about 25 years old) and also a tree that has a review full of chewing gum all over the place, a fate of final greeting and respect from fans of the great rock singer. (Original) Il cimitero più famoso in tutto il mondo è qui a Parigi, inquietante anche di giorno con presenza di corvi, trasmette un certo brivido felino lungo la schiena... Si può trovare la tomba di Jim Morrison e Oscar Wilde, la famosa Edith Piaf ed il celebre Chopin. Sicuramente la più conosciuta la più celebre è la più visitata tra quelle citate è quella di Jim Morrison. Presenta una sua foto da giovane (nella foto aveva sui 25 anni) e anche un albero che ha intorno una recensione piena di gomme da masticare azzeccate dappertutto, una sorte di saluto finale e rispetto da parte dei fan del grande cantante rock.

Very good

(Translated by Google) I went to Pere Lachaise to first see this place of pilgrimage for fans from around the world. The notorious hurdles are hardly visible, as are the nondescript and small gravestone. Instead, tourists are constantly present at this grave. Location near the resting place of Monsieur Chopin. (Original) Wybrałam się na Pere Lachaise żeby w pierwszej kolejności zobaczyć to miejsce pielgrzymek fanów z całego świata. Osławione płotki są mało widoczne, podobnie jak nijaki i niewielki nagrobek. Za to turyści stale obecni przy tym grobie. Lokalizacja w pobliżu miejsca spoczynku Monsieur Chopin'a.

(Translated by Google) Very small tomb and very hidden. You have to walk almost half an hour to find it despite all the brochures indicating where it is. There are many small streets but, this tomb is among others and it is possible that we get lost in this labyrinth. (Original) Très petite tombe et très caché. On doit marcher presque une demi heure pour la trouver malgré que tous les brochures indiquent oú il est. Il y a beaucoup des petites rues mais, cette tombe est entre autres et il est posible qu'on se perdre dans cet labyrinthe.

(Translated by Google) Everything nice eh, pity about that tree full of chewing gum that breaks the side a bit 'the climate of respectful recollection in prayer for the dead (Original) Tutto bello eh, peccato per quell'albero pieno di gomme da masticare di fianco che spezza un po' il clima di rispettoso raccoglimento in preghiera verso i morti

Rock and roll baby

(Translated by Google) Pure emotion (Original) Emozione pura

The sound of silence

(Translated by Google) Impressive after so many years. Only policeman no one stands (Original) Beeindruckend nach so vielen jahren. Nur polizist steht keiner mehr

i always have dream to see his concert but unfortunately come to see his grave

(Translated by Google) Essential if you go to Paris. (Original) Imprescindible si vas a París.

(Translated by Google) Jim has seen it in his short life but his grave has seen even more since 1971: Damage, various rites, consumption of alcohol and narcotics which I have been able to attend. Although very simple and several times restored, it never withstood the daily onslaught of its fans, so that it was first of all tele-monitored and finally could no longer approach it. A passage nevertheless obliged among the marvels of this cemetery witnesses of our civilization. (Original) Jim en a vu dans sa courte vie mais sa tombe en a vu encore bien plus depuis 1971: Dégradations, rites divers, consommation d'alcool et de stupéfiants auxquels j'ai pu assister. Bien que très simple et plusieurs fois restaurée, elle n'a jamais résisté à l'assaut quotidien des ses fans, si bien qu'elle fut tout d'abord télé-surveillée pour finalement ne plus pouvoir l'approcher. Un passage néanmoins obligé parmi les merveilles de ce cimetière témoins de notre civilisation.

It's a tombstone, just a tombstone. You can't expect anything more. Many people gather here, it is a place of pilgrimage. The grave is fenced off, you can't get to it.

Visited a number of times and it is simply beautiful. Visiting on a major anniversary sees a good turnout and a special atmosphere. 2011 saw a visit from Ray and Robbie. Emotional stuff.
