Jewish Cemetery, Salgótarjáni St, Budapest, Hungary

Established in 1874 the Salgótarján St Jewish cemetery was the resting place of the Jewish elite of Budapest. The cemetery is located just behind the Kerepesi cemetery.

The entrance of the Art Nouveau cemetery was designed by Lajta Béla. It is facing to the Salgótarjáni St, a dead end street connecting some railroad yards with the city.

Many Holocaust victims were buried here in 1944-45. The mass graves are located at the back of the cemetery.

The last burials took place in 1950. The place is covered by an abundant vegetation and guarded by some ferocious dogs.

Angel by Stella Newman

Day 114 - nothing more inspiring today than a visit to the cemetery. Here is a stone angel on someone's 2006 grave, doesn't seem to have quite the serenity that the old style angels have, but impressive nonetheless.

قبرستان خضر روی سراشیبی کوه درست شده. بدون هیچ نظم خاصی. قبرهای جدید روی

قبرهای قدیمی آمده‌اند. خیلی جاها دورتادور قبرها را نرده کشیده‌اند. اوه البته

نگرانی نیست که مرده‌اش فرار کند. اینجا آمریکا نیست. مرده‌ها آرام در جای خود

می‌خوابند و می‌پوسند. آزاری به کس نمی‌رسانند. مساله این است که باید به

نحوی نشان داد که قبر صاحب دارد؛ وگرنه مثل قبر مادربزرگ و خاله و دایی مادر

من همه دوباره استفاده می‌شوند (احتمال آخر و متاسفانه، یقینی ما این بود)،

بدون اینکه حتی نامی از اونها روی سنگ مرده‌های جدید برده بشود.

قبرهای خانواده مادرم را پیدا نکردیم -حسی بد و ناامیدکننده داشت، انگار به

خانه کسی بروی و در را روی تو باز نکند- حتی در حین گشتن، صداشان هم کردیم. بی

نتیجه.

با تمام این احوال، قبرستان بسیار جالبی بود، از قبرستان جدید شهر که کمی

دورتر است و به رسم ریاکارانه جمهوری اسلامی نامش «صالحین»، دلنشین‌تر بود.

اگرچه عصر و نزدیک شب کمی هولناک به نظر می‌رسید. شاید به این خاطر که

نمی‌توانستی فراموش کنی اینجا قبرها هم دزدیده می‌شوند.

شاید هم به این خاطر که وسط گشتن، مادر ناگهانی و برای یک آن شعله آتش دیده

بود که از قبری پشت سرش بالا زده بود.

شب در هتل برای ما تعریف کرد.

من و پسردایی‌ام که کلی سر اسم خضر به عنوان اسمی جالب برای یک قبرستان

مسخره‌بازی درآورده بود و حسابی خندیده بودیم را کمی شوکه و البته تا وقتی

بخوابیم، ساکت کرد!

Deutscher Soldatenfriedhof Hooglede by Webrarian

The Hooglede German war cemetery (Deutscher Soldatenfriedhof Hooglede in German) is a military cemetery in the Belgian town of Hooglede, six kilometres northwest of Roeselare. It is located at the east side of Hooglede. It contains 8,241 buried German soldiers from World War I.

On October 19, 1914, Hooglede was occupied by German soldiers. The Hooglede cemetery in the Beverenstraat arose in 1917 when the cemetery in Hooglede was no longer sufficient for the mounting deathtoll. There were some new cemeteries, including "Ehrenfriedhof Hooglede Ost Beveren" along the street. After the liberation by the French, approximately 4100 German soldiers were buried in the soil of Hooglede.

The German cemeteries were supervised by the Belgian military service of tombs, but in 1926 all the cemeteries were the responsibility of the Amtlicher Deutscher Gräberdienst. Between 1932 and 1937, this service was responsible for the German cemetery in the Beverenstraat. Many graves in various cemeteries in Hooglede, Gits, Handzame, Torhout, and Lichtervelde were sent to Hooglede. The graves then were marked by crosses.

In 1937, a chapel was built using stones from a German pavilion at the World Exhibition in Paris. During World War II, an addition 29 German soldiers were buried at the cemetery. These soldiers were later sent to another cemetery.

After the Second World War, the supervision of the cemetery was again in the hands of the Belgian organization "Nos Tombs". Not much later, in 1954, the monitoring was taken over by the German War Graves Commission (Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgräberfürsorge in German).

Numerous German graves dispersed over the country were transferred between 1956 and 1958 from 128 cemeteries to the four cemeteries in the Flemish part of Belgium. Hooglede is one of the four main German cemeteries in Belgium. The others being in Langemark, Vladslo, Menen.

During the renovation works in Hooglede in 1957-58, the entrance arches of the chapel were reduced to nine. This change came in two phases. The crosses were also replaced by nameplates. After 1960, no more major works were performed.

Such a moving place. The sense of loss there you feel is unbearable, and the amount of gratitude I have for these young men -and women- is amazing. I was a bit of an emotional wreck here. I dread to think what I'll be like when I visit France & Flanders later on in the year.
