[Cz-L] E.Hauster in Mohyliv-Podilskyi

Czernowitzers...

Edgar Hauster is once again on the road... he reports as follows:

===================

[... I'm on the road again (of course by motorbike), currently spending
a few days in Czernowitz. Yesterday afternoon I returned from a journey
to Mohyliv-Podilskyi in Transnistria. I've established a close
connection to the Jewish Community of Mohyliv-Podilskyi, particularly to
Leonid Brechman, their chairman. He's doing a superbe job, the Community
being the focal point for most of the Jews of Mohyliv-Podilskyi. There
are currently living 279 Jews in Mohyliv-Podilskyi, 54 of them having
survived the Ghetto and the Holocaust. I've released a (German) post,
displaying several pictures and a video clip at
http://hauster.blogspot.com/2010/05/die-stadt-mohyliv-podilskyi-das-ghetto.html.

In addition I've visited the Jewish Cemetery of Mohyliv-Podilskyi, with
17 ha even larger and in a much better shape than those in Czernowitz.
There were so incredible many victims of the Holocaust to be buried
there. The cemetry is divided in three sections:

1. New Cemetery
2. Old Cemetery
3. Romanian (i. e. Bukovinian) Cemetery

I was of course focused on the so called Romanian Cemetry, taking as
many pictures as I could manage in a reasonable time. I've tried to take
especially pictures of those headstones, whose inscriptions were somehow
readable. At the end of the day we've got 183 pictures... ]

================================

I am now working on making the album to display the pictures that Edgar
refers to above. I'll let you know when it's posted. Do have a look at
the link posted above -- the video is very good and of course, so are
the pictures. Google does a very acceptable job of translating the
entire page if your German is like mine.

Best,
jerome
