Jewish Funerary Art Jewish cemetery in Miłakowo, Poland
According to ESJF European Jewish Cemeteries Initiative, the Jewish cemetery in Miłakowo is demolished. Most part of the former Jewish cemetery area is irretrievably overbuilt by Christian graves of Parish Christian Cemetery and the monument dedicated to the victims of the 2010 Smolensk plane crash. The whole Parish Cemetery area is fenced with different types of fence. The perimeter of the Jewish lapidarium area is marked with concrete ground tile. All surrounding non-Jewish graves are relatively fresh (2010-20). No Jewish tombstones have preserved in their original places. Currently, there is a very small lapidarium area (about 100 sq m) with 6 tombstones inside the former Jewish cemetery site at the back of the above-mentioned monument.
Date of the oldest tombstone: 1863
Date of the latest tombstone: 1909
Perimeter length: 106 metres (106 meters – perimeter of the historical cemetery area, 38 meters – perimeter of the Lapidarium area)
The Jewish cemetery is situated by the western side of Kaszubska street and is a part of Parish Cemetery of the Archdiocese of Warmia at the Roman-Catholic Parish of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross at Kaszubska Street (in Polish: Cmentarz Parafialny Archidiecezji Warmińskiej przy Parafii Rzymskokatolickiej Podwyższenia Krzyża Świętego przy ulicy Kaszubskiej).
