In 1791, during the French Revolution, the National Assembly decided to make the building a necropolis of the Great Men of France, honoring the characters embodying the great values ​​of the Republic: Alexandre Dumas, Victor Hugo, Emile Zola , Jean Jaurès, Pierre and Marie Curie, Simone Veil and Joséphine Baker, among others.
