Cemetery Description:

Jewish cemetery Vrútky (Ruttka), Vrútky, Slovakia. 190 burials total.

The cemetery lies on a gentle slope, is rectangular in shape with an area of ??70 x 30 meters, and was once surrounded by a stone wall around the entire perimeter. Since the wall gradually collapsed, a new fence was built in 2024 with ESJF funds. The cemetery was founded around 1890. The total number of graves in the cemetery is 195, of which 155 are in the lower part. 178 names of buried persons have been identified on 164 tombstones. Some other names are still hidden on the underside of several fallen tombstones.
