Learn the historical origin of one of the most macabre curiosities in the world, and see for your-self the final resting place for over six million souls, including Robespierre, Princess Elisabeth of France, and Georges Danton. Greg Benoit, Director of the Gates Public Library, will discuss this very fascinating burial place.
