Židovský hřbitov Dobříš - Židovský hřbitov Dobříš

The consequences of Bolshevik "care" are sad. However, the cemetery is in good condition after the basic renovation.

The cemetery is the oldest monument of the Dobříš Jewish community. Perhaps it was founded during the Thirty Years' War (1618 - 1648) in the places where the Jews died, camping here fleeing Vienna from the plague. The first documented mention of the Jewish community in Dobříš dates from 1645, the first local tombstone is five years younger. Burials took place here until 1942, when all Jews from Dobříš and the surrounding area were transported to concentration camps. If you want to visit the reverent area, be sure to contact the website of the local information center, where they will also give you the keys.
