In the second half of the nineteenth century, due to the rapid development of Jewish settlement in Kielce, the local Jewsih community faced a necessity of orginising a new burial place. Previously, few Jews of Kielce burried their dead in the cemetery in nearby Checiny. Because of this in 1868 land in the farm Pakosz was purchased at the junction of the current Pakosz Dolny and Kusocinskiego Strets. At that time it was a parcel of land located outside built-up áreas. Meir Baraban in his published in 1929 essay " Historical Monuments of Jews in Poland " wrote tha t the jews of Kielce "bought the square for the cemetery very far from the town and there they burry their dead even today". The first documented burial took place two years later. The brotherhood of Chewra Kadisza took care of organization and management of the cemetery. In Kielce also functioned a society called Chesed Shel Emet, which...

City of upper Italy, 22 miles West of Venice, on the Bacchiglione; capital of the province of the same name. It's Jewish congregation, for  centuries one of the most important of Italy, with the Synagogue and cemetery, existed as early as 1300. The first Jew in Padova known by name was  the physician Jacob Bonacosa, who, in 1255, translated there the "Colliget" of Averroes (Steinschneider, "Hebr. Uebersetungen," p.671).

The statutes of  the community were liberal; the population was tolerant; and the Jews were admited  without restrictions. They were placed on an equ...

Sunday, Nissan 30, 5778. April 15, 2018. Shalom! World. Address: Tadeusza Kosciuszki 3. Zakopane. The Café Tygoduik gets its charrm founded in the Tatra Mountains view. It's fabulous! The building don't have a charm, there is a grocery on the building and on the others floors are many smal stores and services with low prices. The snacks, and lunch plates are very good.  So, good food, good service and a fantastic view makes the  Café a good place to enjoy some hours. Shalom! Aleichem.
