About this cemetery

The Jewish cemetery of Bitola was founded by Sephardic Jews in 1497 and is thought to be one of the oldest Sephardic cemeteries in the Balkans. It lies north-east of the town centre and is now abandoned. Rabbi Shabtai Djaen restored it from 1924, and a clean-up operation took place in 2019.
