Cemetery Description: |
This cemetery is in quite good condition. There is a caretaker who has the key, Andronic Vasile, who stays in the Chevra Kadisha. He requested a donation and we gave him 20 Lei (= approx. $5.35 USD). He then gave us a receipt from Comunitatea Evreilor (Jewish Community of Piatra Neamt, Str.Petru Rares Nr.7). This cemetery is the currently used one. There are recent burials in it. It was opened after the old cemetery (located behind the city hospital) was closed in 1860. Photos by-Merle Kastner & Sylvie Gsell |
