Luigi Pirandello's tomb

Sicily

Sicily in Film, TV & Literature

Walking along a path in the countryside close to the Pirandello museum, you arrive at a very old pine tree. Beneath this huge tree, Pirandello used to sit and think, paint, relax and write to his friends. According to his last will, fulfilled with the cerimony of the transfer of his ashes on 10th of  December 1961, he was buried under the tree. It is a very simple grave. A memorial stone, carved by the sculptor Marino Mazzacurati, houses the Master's cinerary urn, among wild flowers and agaves.

'... take my cinerary urn to Sicily and place it into a stone in the Girgenti countryside, where I was born'.
