57 / 100
Mixed Santos Brazil

Memorial Necrópole in Santos, Brazil, is recognized as the world's tallest vertical cemetery, with Pelé's mausoleum on its ninth floor.

Infact verdict: Mixed (57/100).

The claim that Memorial Necrópole is recognized by Guinness World Records as the world's tallest vertical cemetery is supported by multiple sources, including a high-reliability source confirming its status. However, the claim about Pelé's mausoleum being on the ninth floor is incorrect; it is actually located on the second floor, as confirmed by a high-reliability source. Therefore, the first claim is verified as true, while the second is false.
