Damascus restores key Jewish cemetery
An organization dedicated to preserving Syrian heritage has begun restoring the largest Jewish cemetery in Damascus, with the aim of safeguarding the historical legacy of the Jewish community, whose numbers have declined over recent decades. The restoration work includes cleaning the cemetery, consolidating the graves, repairing the walls, installing lighting and surveillance systems. A site assessment was conducted during a field visit. Fortunately, the cemetery was not significantly damaged during the war, and the last burial took place approximately a year and a half ago. Visits by Syrian Jews living abroad have also increased, as they come to pay their respects and connect with their ancestral graves.
