Hiša živečih« v Rožni Dolini: Judovsko pokopališče med Gorico in Novo Gorico

The contribution offers a historical overview of establishing and maintaining burial practices at the Jewish cemetery in Rozna Dolina near Nova Gorica, which is the largest cemetery of its kind in Slovenia. Until September 1947, the Jewish cemetery formed a whole together with the synagogue in Gorizia (Italy), established by the former Jewish community of Gorizia, which ceased to exist in 1969. Even though the said cemetery, as well as the Jewish funeral parlour, is no longer in use today, it continues to serve as a splendid example of the preserved Jewish cultural heritage, which is yet to be properly appraised.
