Czernowitz Jewish Cemetery – 14 July 2016 – by Baruch Eylon

On 11-15 July 2016 a delegation of the World Organization of Bukovina Jews traveled to North Bukovina for a pilot project to survey Jewish Heritage Sites in the area around Storozhynetz. The team members were Sara Sweiry, Nathan Kinsbrunner and Baruch Eylon.

During this trip the team surveyed 12 heritage sites, met with local officials, filled the questionnaire (using a mobile application that allows capturing text and pictures, including GPS coordinates) and posted the information on the web, to make it available to all interested people around the world.

The team also prepared recommendations what to do in each site.

This post provides pictures taken by the team in the Jewsish Cemetery in Czernowitz with focus on the “Ohel” and the memorial near it.

Here are the pictures taken at the cemetery. The “Ohel” is planned to be renovated and turned into a museum.
