Re: [Cz-L] Turkenbrunnen

I see nothing wrong in naming the Turkenbrunnen area as St. Mary,
since this was its name previously. Nor is it a sign of lack of
sensitivity
to the plight of Jews during WW2.

Actually, this location may be the one place in Czernowitz in which
there are
more historical markers than anywhere else in the city;
there is also a commemorative plaque to "Alexandru cel bun", Romanian
ruler
of the 14th century.
