Return to Miskolc Home Page

Researcher Julie Strauss Kirsh went to Miskolc in 2009 and provided these
photographs for the Miskolc website. Family historians who journey to Miskolc
should note that the burial register at the cemetery is incomplete.
There are more vital records at the Kazinczy utca synagogue, but it is not
known whether these include burial registers. If you have information about the
content of the synagogue registers, please contact the Webmaster.
