Genzano di Roma. Cemetery

The graveyard of Genzano di Roma is one of the most interesting historical sites of the city with its formal purity pursued in regular geometric shapes.

The church is inspired by Palladian models and the cemetery is organized hierarchically as an urban fabric with a logic of "City of the Dead".

The straight avenues with cypress trees and the variety of funerary chapels transforms this environment into a unique place.
