Cimitero Ebraico, Jewish cemetery in Ferrara, Italy
The cemetery spans 4,500 square meters and contains numerous gravestones arranged across five distinct sections, featuring traditional Hebrew inscriptions and symbols.
Established in 1626, the cemetery holds graves dating back to 1549, making it the oldest active Jewish burial ground in the Emilia-Romagna region.
The monuments and gravestones within the cemetery display Jewish funerary art traditions through architectural elements, inscriptions, and symbolic decorations.
Visitors can access the cemetery between 9:00 AM and 1:00 PM by ringing the bell at the caretaker's house, except on Saturdays and Jewish holidays.
The cemetery features writer Giorgio Bassani's tomb, marked by a geometric monument created by artists Arnaldo Pomodoro and Piero Sartogo in 2003.
