A journey to the past: permanent exhibition on the fence of the Jewish cemetery in Warta

Grant for the Ireneusz Ślipek Association for Polish-Jewish Dialogue in Warta for the implementation of the project “Journey into the Past.”

The Ireneusz Ślipek Association plans to place information boards on the outside of the cemetery fence, with photos and information on the most important events and places related to the history of the cemetery and Warta’s Jews. They will make up a permanent educational exhibition allowing a type of journey into the town’s past, both for residents of Warta and for visitors. On the inside, the Association plans to post information about the former Jewish cemetery in Błaszki: a lapidarium made up of pieces of matzevahs from the cemetery, found several months earlier during the building of a local road, is currently found in Warta.
