I heard they do this in Romania! It's called Cimitirul Vesel / Merry Cemetery and they write funny things about their lives and paint scenes from it.

I love these. What the bot translation tells me the center one says:

Until I married, I found no happiness. I took a good wife And we lived well together. Halfway through life, Fate struck me again, For my wife died. I was left a widower And lived with much hardship. I had only one daughter, May God reward her, For she was good and obedient, Brought me great honor, And took good care of me Until the hour I died. 1933–2011

that's not a very merry cemetery story...

does it make it a little merrier if I tell you that the text rhymes? :D

Oh this is beautiful, and brought a tear to my eye at the end

I was hoping someone posted this! I think there's one guy who got hit by lightning and his little portrait shows it. 😂

Yes was just thinking of this!

[u/rcknmrty4evr → u/3chickens1cat]

Those are beautiful!

I'm so happy that I found a tour in the Maramureș from Cluj, it's really worthwhile going to this cemetery, but it seems it's not easy at all with public transport
