באסקאוויץ — ציון בעל מחצית השקל

Boskovice — kever of the Machatzis HaShekel

Jewish cemetery, Boskovice, Blansko District, South Moravia, Czech Republic

• The cemetery is above the old Jewish quarter, which is itself worth the walk — Boskovice keeps one of the most complete Jewish quarters in Moravia.
• About 2,500 matzevos across some fourteen and a half thousand square metres, the oldest from 1670. It is one of the largest in the country, so know which kever you have come for.
• The Brno Jewish community pays a caretaker who maintains the ground; Boskovice is about thirty kilometres north of Brno, and arrangements are made through Brno.
