Lodz is not just a dirty, industrial city. This place, packed with grey buildings, possesses some veritable treasures. I invite you on a trip to not-very-sad-and-grey-city Lodz.
Jewish Cementery, created in 1892, is one of the biggest necropolis of this type in Europe and the biggest one in Poland (42ha, more than 230 thousand graves including 45 thousand killed in Litzmannstadt Ghetto). The cemetery was the site of mass executions of Jews, Roma and non-Jewish Poles: the graves of the Polish scouts and soldiers of the Home Army are found there.
Cache is placed near the entrance of the cementary. In the first Sunday of the month the entrance is free.
