Jewish Cemetery in Twardogóra

The Jewish cemetery in Twardogóra, in Oleśnica county, was established in 1751. The kirkut stood on Leśna Street, next to the municipal cemetery.

Today

No gravestones survive on the site of the former kirkut. They disappeared due to the sand quarry that was established there. Today the site therefore has no form of a cemetery that can be visited, and its history is recorded only in sources.

Nearby

In Twardogóra itself it is worth seeing the Church of the Holy Trinity and the Mother of God and the Church of the Ascension of the Lord.
