    The so-called "Cemetery" island is actually an island in the Venetian lagoon, located between Venice and Murano: San Michele. It is colloquially called "the cemetery" because it hosts, for almost its entire extension, the monumental cemetery of San Michele, in which some illustrious people are buried such as the psychiatrist Franco Basaglia, the writer Roberto Calasso, the football coach Helenio Herrera, the poet Ezra Pound, the composer Igor Stravinsky and the writer Cesarina Vighy.

    From this point it is possible to observe the island perfectly.
