What makes the Cz jewish cemetery eligible are the fact that it is:
1. the largest intact Jewish cemetery in Eastern Europe.
2. contains many old and beautifully carved tombstones.
3. contains many tombstones designed by Bernard Reder.
One thing which would help would be if someone made a documentary,
or at least wrote an illustrated article, to be published by a major
magazine, about the cemetery.
Think about whom you know, who might help us with this.
I have some ideas myself and will put them into action.
