Second Stop: Jim Morrison's Grave, Père Lachaise Cemetery, Paris, France


Morrison died on July 3, 1971. In the official account of his death, he was found in a Paris apartment bathtub by Pamela Courson (his long-term girlfriend). Pursuant to French law, no autopsy was performed because the medical examiner claimed to have found no evidence of foul play. The absence of an official autopsy has left many questions regarding Morrison's cause of death. Morrison is buried in the Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris, one of the city's most visited tourist attractions (Wikipedia, 2011).
