This service is supposed to preserve for posterity the places associated with the Jewish people that lived on current Polish areas particularly. Here I am going to publish documents and photographs relating to Jewish cemeteries, synagogues and Jewish martyrdom.

"In times when the others gather - you squander!
When the others scatter - you accumulate!"
