Where is Jim Morrison’s Grave?

He lies in division 6 of the Pere Lachaise Cemetery in Paris, part of the over one million people buried there, and a major reason for it being the world’s most visited cemetery. At around 5am on Saturday morning July 3^rd 1971, Pamela S. Courson, his girlfriend, found him dead in the bathtub from a heroin overdose at the age of 27 in their apartment on 17-19 rue Beautreillis in the Marais district (4^th Arrondisement). He was born on December 8 1943 in Melbourne, Florida.

The cemetery can be a very confusing place, and his grave is nearly impossible to find so ask the guard for a free map, otherwise you’ll never find it on your own. There is no entrance fee. Gate Hours: Metro Stop: Pere-Lachaise/Line 2 or 3.
