The large cathedrals in Europe are filled with graves of famous people. I’ve seen DaVinci, Michaelangelo, Dante, Galileo, Shakespeare, Stephen Hawking, a few others that are escaping me. Pretty crazy experience.

There are a lot of cathedrals that claim to have famous people in them. More than in Florence claimed to have Galileo and DaVinci. Maybe they split up the bones.

Some of the ones I've visited:

St. Peter
George Washington
Robert E. Lee (and Traveler)
Stonewall Jackson
Andrew Jackson
Red Eagle (William Weatherford)
Duane Allman
Barry Oakley
Wild Bill Hickok
Calamity Jane
Hank Williams
Elvis Pressley
Buffalo Bill Cody

Been to Florence. There are several churches that claim to have DaVinci, Michealangelo, Galileo, and others. Not sure how many of those claims are real.
