Re: [Cz-L] Czernowitz Jewish diversity

Iosif,
  What you describe is the Heilgeskreuzplatz.
   Reading again it is possible since he writes of
" a large cross, with a statue of the Virgin sitting at the foot
 of it, holding in her arms the dead body of the Saviour, her head
 adorned with twelve stars, and two angels at her side"
  This place was later the Hauptwache - the Pomp and Ceremony
   of Habsburg rule.
