The ESJF has documented 103 Jewish cemeteries across Serbia as part of the first phase of our national survey. We’ll return in the winter, when vegetation is less dense, to complete the remaining work.
Serbia is believed to be home to around 150 Jewish cemeteries, though the exact number will only become clear once the full survey is complete.
The first phase of these surveys was carried out by ESJF Senior Surveyor Ian Galevskii together with our country coordinator, Ladislav Trajer, from the Federation of Jewish Communities in Serbia.
We are grateful to the Auswärtiges Amt (German Federal Foreign Office) for their ongoing support of this vital project.
