Bois-de-Vaux Cemetery  The Bois-de-Vaux Cemetery (French "Cimetière du Bois-de-Vaux") is the principal burial ground of Lausanne in Switzerland. Laid out by the architect Alphonse Laverrière between 1922 and 1951, the cemetery lies to the south of the town and has been designated as a ("bien culturel suisse d'importance nationale"). There is a long central avenue lined with two rows of lime trees, banks stocked with flowering plants, ponds with fish and water lilies, many benches, and forty kilometres of hedges. Together with thousands of trees they provide homes for many different birds, while the other wildlife living in the hedges and undeveloped parts of the cemetery includes badgers, foxes, squirrels and hedgehogs. The cemetery has enough room for 26,000 plots. When the city of Lausanne heard in 1929 that the American bishop Charles Brent had died in Lausanne and wished to be buried there, they offered a plot for his remains in the section of the Bois-de-Vaux cemetery reserved for distinguished foreigners. Some members of the exiled Yugoslav royal family were initially buried here, but their remains were later moved to the mausoleum at Oplenac, Serbia, when allowed by the government in Belgrade:   Also, the Queen Mother of Romania, a first cousin and friend of Princess Olga, was buried in the cemetery in 1982, but in 2019 her remains were due to be moved to the Curtea de Argeș Cathedral in Romania:
