Jarosław, podkarpackie
The cemetery, established in 1700, was used by Orthodox Jews, perhaps
Chassidic. Significant names include the father of Rabbi Levi Icchak (no grave
marker present) and Shimon Maryles, who died in 1850. Last burial was in
1943. The landmarked cemetery is located in Kruhel Pełkiński district: isolated
suburban, flat land with no marker or sign. Reached by crossing private
property, access is open to all with wall, fence, or gate.
The cemetery is about 2.1952 ha.
About 50 gravestones remained, 20% in original location with 25%-50% toppled
or broken, dated from 1840 to 20th century. One stone is in the Muzeum
Miejskie (City Museum) and others were incorporated into roads or structures
in the city and neighborhood. Recently an ohel on the tzadikh’s grave was
rebuilt. More information: |
