Description
Stroll among the avenues of this cemetery, long abandoned and overgrown. Created in 1800 on the then outskirts of Kazimierz to replace the Remu'h cemetery, it was defiled by the Nazis who used its memorial stones as building materials. Reflecting the relative laxity and assimilation of Krakow's Jews, some tombs have epitaphs in German or Polish. Among the best known are those of painter Maurycy Gottlieb (1856-1879) and photographer Ignacy Krieger (1817-1889).
