Rows of headstones in the Jewish Remu'h Cemetery, Krakow, Poland.


Rows of headstones in the Jewish Remu'h Cemetery, Krakow, Poland. The cemetery was established in 1537 and was full by the 18th century. Many gravestones were buried prior to World War II and recovered only in the 1950's; those left uncovered were destoyed by the Nazi's. A beautiful Wailing Wall has been made of these broken pieces of stone along one side of the cemetery.
