A guided tour of the Jewish cemetery

Event description

The former Jewish cemetery of Frankfurt (Oder) has been on the Polish side since 1945, in Słubice, at the fork of the roads to Rzepin and Krosno Odrzańskie. A walk with a guide offers an opportunity to learn the history of this place and the fate of the local Jewish community.

Since 2007 the cemetery has been looked after by the Jewish Religious Community in Warsaw and the Foundation for the Protection of Jewish Heritage. In 2014 the necropolis was entered on the list of monuments of the Lubusz Voivodeship.

Meeting point: Sunday 27 September, 11:00 a.m., at the cemetery entrance from ul. Transportowa in Słubice.

Prices: adults €10, concessionary (pensioners, people with disabilities) €7.50, children, pupils and students €5.
