Biography | Marie Curie — Laid to Rest in the Panthéon
kevin
Marie Curie died on 4 July 1934 at the Sancellemoz sanatorium near Sallanches from aplastic anaemia caused by long exposure to radiation.
She was first buried beside Pierre in the family plot at Sceaux.
On 20 April 1995 their remains were transferred to the Panthéon in Paris in a state ceremony attended by President François Mitterrand.
Marie became the first woman to be interred in the Panthéon on the basis of her own scientific achievements.
The lead-lined coffins were placed in the crypt among France’s national heroes.
The transfer recognised both the scientific legacy of the Curies and Marie’s singular place as the first person to win Nobel Prizes in two different sciences.
