The Synagogue of the Sadagora Rebbe – November 2016 – Collected by Baruch Eylon

 

In early November 2016 it was announced that the restoration work on the Sadagora synagogue of the Ruzhiner Rebbe has been completed and the building was re-dedicated.

I thought it will be good to collect pictures and various articles from different times and sources, showing the synagogue status and look, into one document and make it available to all. This was done in this document.

Sadegura Jewish Cemetery – 12 July 2016 – by Baruch Eylon

In 11-15 July 2016 a delegation of the World Organization of Bukovina Jews traveled to North Bukovina for a pilot project to survey Jewish Heritage Sites in the area around Storozhynetz and Czernowitz.
The team members were Sara Sweiry, Nathan Kinsbrunner and Baruch Eylon.

During this trip the team surveyed 12 heritage sites, met with local officials, filled the questionnaire (using a mobile application that allows capturing text and pictures, including GPS coordinates) and posted the information on the web, to make it available to all interested people around the world.

The team also prepared recommendations what to do in each site.
The Jewish Cemetery in Sadegura is located in Sadegura, not far from the Rabbi’s synagogue. Although it was cleaned not long ago it is overgrown again and there is a plan to clean it again. The gate was locked but entrance was anyhow impossible because of the vegetation.

This post provides pictures taken by the team in the Sadegura Cemetery.
