My sister works at our local cemetery and I used to work in a funeral home and still have quite an interest in funeral rites and cemeteries.<br /><br /> I can't imagine how people get around in the cemetery pictured without falling over the headstones.

Your real life pictures give us the feeling that we are there with you.<br /><br />( I'm ashamed to say, with reference to where you come from, that I did not have enough time to visit this quarter.

The names of the czech Holocaust victims during the second world war, are written on a wall inside the adjacent Pinkas synagogue.

I enlarged the photos to see if I could tell where the names were written but was not able to see any. Are the names of the victims inside? I think it is grand that the old cemetery has not been forgotten. Lots of graves are not visited that often and at least those have a constant flow of visitors.
