Old Jewish Cemetery

You can find the old Bolekhov Jewish cemetery on low hill by the side of a road just outside of the small town. The animals who graze here keep the grass short enough that one can usually walk around - a small consolation to the sense of neglect and abandonment of even the graves of the Jewish community.
