The General Cemetery of the South in Caracas (Cementerio General del Sur), founded in 1876 by President Antonio Guzmán Blanco, is a historic 240-hectare site serving as a resting place for notable Venezuelan figures.
Known for its impressive 19th-century marble mausoleums, it is currently undergoing rehabilitation while hosting guided tours that explore its rich history and sculpture.
The cemetery marks its 150th anniversary in 2026.
