This grave in the historic heart of #Perelachaisecemetery has totally collapsed in on itself…
#Why? A lot of the old part of the cemetery isn’t actually flat so the headstones shift and move with that thing called #Gravity or may have been slightly misaligned to start with

#headstones were, are, often fixed in place by metal rods. Eventually, as any school geography teacher will tell you, they break. With devastating consequences…this is the same headstone from front and back
