Jewish Cemetery

It is the Okopowa Street Jewish Cemetery. Spanning a bit over 33 hectares and containing upwards of 250,000 graves, it stands as the largest Jewish cemetery in Poland and one of the largest in Europe. There is a remarkable void in the landscape of the capital, where pre-war Warsaw is mainly unaltered and where moss, carved stone, and deep silence all serve as direct windows into the past.
