Re: [Cz-L] Mural Inscription Above the Entrance to the "Groisse Shil"

  On the wall of the Groisse Shil there is an inscription :
  " Founded in Hataknat , this is the year 5559 since Creation."
    In modern count 1798 or 1799.
     This is when they started building , it was finished in 1853 .
      America was just 20 years independent when they started.
       This is hewn in one of the stone walls of the Groisse Shil.
        They also called her the Alte Shil.
         The street was called Synagogegasse ,what else ?

Czernowitzers...

There is a mural inscription above the entrance to the "Groisse Shil" in
Czernowitz, photographed by Eliezer Schaffer and uploaded at our ehpes.com
Blog:

Is there anybody out there, who could descipher, transcribe, translate,
explain this inscription to all of us?

Thank you in advance!
