Thus, a fencing project is now underway at the Jewish cemetery in Opályi, Hungary. The site was in urgent need of protection, since a section of the cemetery had already been overtaken by construction in the past.
There are 78 remaining tombstones at the site, 52 intact and 26 broken, dating back to the period 1840-1943.
The fencing of the Jewish cemetery in Opályi is made possible thanks to the financial support of the German Federal Foreign Office, the help of our partners at the Federation of Hungarian Jewish Communities (MAZSIHISZ-Magyarországi Zsidó Hitközségek Szövetsége), and our country coordinator, Mária Baranyi.
