About this cemetery
The Protestant cemetery of Caen lies on rue du Magasin-à-Poudre, next to the university's Campus 1, and is also called the University cemetery. In the 17th and 18th centuries non-Catholics had no place to bury their dead; the cemetery opened in 1783. It has been disused since 1950 and is now a very small green space.
