About this cemetery
The medieval Jewish cemetery of Siret stands on Horodiște hill, in the east of the town, and is considered the oldest Jewish cemetery in Eastern Europe. It was added to the list of historic monuments of Suceava County in 2015. Many gravestones are carved with Hebrew motifs, and the oldest dates from 1560. A virtual 360-degree tour of the site was published in 2024.
