About this cemetery
This lapidarium stands on Plac 23 Stycznia in Ostrów Wielkopolski. It was built in 2008 from recovered fragments of matzevot, laid out on the outline of the town's first Jewish cemetery. Its construction followed a 2006 agreement between the town and the Jewish religious community, to which it was handed over in 2009. Ostrów Wielkopolski had two Jewish cemeteries.
