The Andrychow Jewish Cemetery in ANDRYCHOW, POLAND

This list represents the readable transcriptions from the Andrychow Jewish Cemetery, southwest of Krakow, Poland, as they stood in May 1991. There is a cottage at one end, which is inhabited, but there was no sign of responsibility for the cemetery from the people living there. In fact, in 2005 the man living there clearly wanted money to allow me to enter. In 1990, there was also a picnic table and bench under a large tree, perhaps for the use of students at a training center next door, which had closed by 1998.

I first visited the cemetery in 1990 and there was a fair bit of additional damage done during those 12 months. The cemetery is a bit away from the center of the town, and showed no signs of care. There were markers for 608 stones, which I tagged and logged in my notebook.

If you have any questions I can help with, please e-mail me at jskippon@outlook.com
