The Sexiest Tomb In France : Victor Noir From Ordinary Man to Fertility Symbol

Victor Noir, an ordinary man who lived from 1848 to 1870, found himself caught in a duel between the editor of "La Marseillaise" and Prince Pierre Bonaparte. In a fit of rage, the prince shot and killed Victor, sparking public outrage. Victor's death became a symbol of revolution, drawing over 100,000 mourners to his funeral and leading to street demonstrations. Although initially forgotten, his remains were later moved to Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris. A bronze sculpture, created by Jules Dalou, was commissioned to honor him. The sculpture depicted Victor Noir with meticulous attention to detail, including a notable bulge in his pants, and became a popular attraction. Visitors believed that touching specific parts of the statue could bring fertility or increase the chances of having twins.
