"Jewish Funerary Art"
The Jewish Cemetery of Třebíč is a rare and beautiful example of Jewish funerary art in Czech Republic. The historic cemetery is one of the few of its kinds to have survived relatively unscathed despite the mass destruction of all symbols of Jewish culture in Europe leading up to and during WWII. Although the earliest tombstone that has survived these many years can be traced back to 1625, the cemetery itself was established at a earlier date. A stroll through the cemetery will take you past a variety of tombstones and memorials that cover a range of historical periods, as well as the grave markers of local Jewish personalities. Of special note is the charming funeral hall, built in 1903, that remains well-preserved. Together with the adjacent Jewish Quarter and the St. Prokopius’ Basilica, the Cemetery has been named a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
