WARSAW: The largest (very neglected) JEWISH ✡️🕍 CEMETERY in Europe (Poland)

Warsaw Poland - Jewish cemetery tour, the Warsaw Jewish Cemetery. Let's travel to Poland and let's visit the capital city of Warsaw and then let's go to the Warsaw Jewish Cemetery is one of the largest Jewish cemeteries in Europe and in the world. Located on Warsaw's Okopowa Street and abutting the Christian Powązki Cemetery, the Jewish necropolis (Jewish Cemetery in Warsaw) was established in 1806 and occupies 33 hectares (83 acres) of land. The Jewish Cemetery in Warsaw contains over 250,000 marked graves, as well as mass graves of victims of the Warsaw Ghetto. Although the Jewish Cemetery in Warsaw was closed down during World War II, after the war it was reopened and a small portion of it remains active, serving Warsaw's existing Jewish population.
As the necropolis was established to replace many smaller cemeteries closer to the city centre, the Jewish Cemetery in Warsaw was designed to serve all Jewish communities of Warsaw, regardless of their affiliation. Hence, it is subdivided into several districts dubbed quarters (kwatery), historically reserved for various groups. Among them are three Orthodox (for men, women and one for holy scriptures), Reform Judaism, children, military and Warsaw Ghetto Uprising victims.
The Jewish Cemetery in Warsaw is filled with monuments dedicated to notable personas such as politicians, spiritual leaders, inventors, economists and others. Many of the markers are simple, others are elaborately carved and richly decorated.
