"According to archaeologists, 11 cemeteries were stacked on top of each other and the number of people buried there could be more than 100,000. Dating back to the 15th century, this cemetery is the oldest Jewish burial ground in Europe.  
The place has a particular charm. In a confined space, with nearly 12,000 tombstones tangled up together this cemetery has an astonishing feeling of mystery.
