About this cemetery

Plovdiv's Jewish community uses a section of the municipal Central Cemetery on Knyaginya Maria Luiza Boulevard. The section lies next to the walled-off and largely abandoned Turkish cemetery and holds around 2,600 granite and marble gravestones. Earlier gravestones included those of Rabbi Israel Aobi (d. 1690) and Rabbi Salomon Safir (d. 1716).
