Dear Hardy,

no, the volunteers of SVIT did not work on parcels 38 and 96. They started where the workcamp of Aktion Sühnezeichen in early August ended; right from the ceremony hall on parcels 54, 55, 57 and 58. Last year they cleared parcel 33 an parts of 34. I actually work on a map that visualizes what has already been done and what is still to do. Be patient; I will mail the map after next weekend.

Warmest wishes
Christian

Betreff: Re: [Cz-L] Area of cemetery cleared by hired workers, future plans and other concerns.

The work so far ,can be divided in 3 division by area and concern:
 1. The welcome area around the ceremonial hall.
     As this is also the main entry and start of the main alley it contains
     many important graves and mausoleums and also the wailing wall -
       an assembly of broken grave stones. This will in the future become a
visitors center of the promised Holocaust Museum .So we were told.
              It is relatively clean and accessible.
         The iron fences and metalworks are rusty - the ceremonial hall is
a ruin.

  2. The Bursuc project: Mimi's intention was to have the hectare project
as a 2 plot wide
        strip parallel to the main alley. It became a perpendicular strip
almost to the
        limit of the cemetery. But it really makes no difference.

  3. The Swit project this year concentrates on two plots : 38 and 96 ,one
by the alley and
        the other in the middle. I can easily guess why . They contain mass
graves :
        One is the Holocaust mass grave and the other the Jewish Austrian
soldiers of WW1.
         As Julia M. from Swit wants to put posters to the main attractions
these must be accessible and respectable.

          The Rumanian mass grave, an attraction by itself ,
           is beautifully maintained by the Rumanians.

       And the main entry plate is to read :
     " You are welcome to the Czernowitz Jewish Cemetery where 100,000 Jews
are buried "
