Description
The Jewish cemetery in Ulanów was founded around 1700 years at the current street T. Bula, near the school. In autumn 1942 at the cemetery buried dozens of corpses of people executed during the deportation of Jews from Ulanów.
As a result of the devastation still an area of approximately 1.5 hectares left only about 200 gravestones in various states of preservation. These are typical tombstones with inscriptions in Hebrew prepared. The oldest tombstone commemorates identified Aron Joseph son of David Yakir Yechiel, d. in 1825, some of the surviving tombstones stand on the graves of local rabbis and their families, for example Rebecca, daughter of Eliezer Horowitz from Dzików, the wife of Rabbi Chanina from Ulanów; Chanina son Naftali Tzvi tzaddik from Ropczyce; Tircy, the granddaughter of Chaim from Nowy Sącz, the wife of Rabbi Mordechai David from Ulanów.
In the eighties of the last century on the initiative by a local priest Joseph Lizak, residents held a restaurant Ulanów cemetery - they tided up and erected the fence. At the gate they put plaques with inscriptions in Hebrew and Polish.
Unfortunately the cemetery is deteriorating again - gravestones are crumbling, fence surrounding area is collapsed, sometimes someone is carrying the garbage dump here ... It is worth to visit this place while we still can see something there. A sloping gravestones, where the silence is broken only by the chirping of birds doing really great impression.
The cache is a small plastic container of pills hidden and concealed inside the rotten trunk of a tree right next to the rest of cemetary's fencing. Because of problems with coordinates in my mobile phone you should check photos to find the right area. Remember to mask a cache!
Caution! Men in the Jewish cemetery should wear a hat!
