Workshops on Jewish cemeteries

On Sunday, October 20, our Institute organized another extraordinary workshop under the program of the ABCs of Judaism and Jewish Culture. This time, it was conducted by Krzysztof Bielawski, a researcher of Jewish cemeteries and the founder of www.kirkuty.pl website. Our guest spoke about the symbolism of mitzvahs, Jewish burial rites and the history of the Kielce Jewish cemetery. The workshop participants learned some interesting facts and details and watched some unique photographs.
