Finding two matzevot and pedestals in the abandoned property at ul. Bema (AGNIESZKA SADOWSKA)
At one of the premises at Bema Street there are two matzevot and three pedestals under the gravestones. They already know about the representative of the Jewish community, and they know the municipality. Where will they go now?Opportunities are two.
Bem. A mixture of wooden buildings, brick houses and vacant houses. One of them was discovered matzevot.Accidentally. Someone went to the property, saw the stones lying on it. He associated the shape. I told Lucy Lisowską, representative of the Jewish community in Bialystok and Podlaskie.
Because although there are no inscriptions on the stones - they have been obliterated - this shape clearly indicates the origin. Straight, vertical plates reveal that someone has attracted them to the property from the nearby cemetery. Because in Bema Street, still in the 60's, tombstones stood. Later, the memory of the cemetery was obliterated by setting up a bazaar in its place and then building a meat hall and building of the Social Insurance Institution.
Only before the Białystok World Congress of Esperantists, which took place in 2009, a part of the cemetery was re-arranged - a square was laid here, its central part was laid benches, and from the boxers the Star of David was formed. We also started to find matzevot. Eg on one of the grounds at Bema the matzevot was used as ... stairs in front of the house!
There are now more gravestones. I would probably lie in oblivion not yet know how long, if no signal from one of the Białystok.

"I am glad that the inhabitants of Bialystok are more and more sensitive to the problem of matzevot, which can be found in different places in the city. The place of gravestones is after all in the cemetery - comments Lucy Lisowska, a representative of the Jewish community. Personally, I only regret that some of the gravestones have inscribed the inscriptions - so it is impossible to read on whose graves standing. One can only assume that they come from the cemetery at Bema - the distance between the property and the cemetery is just a few hundred meters ...
Lucy Lisowska says gravestones must go back to the cemetery. Which? Perhaps on Bema Street. But it is not excluded that it may also be a cemetery on East Street. On the East in recent years they had already hit tombstones, which were used in the construction of walls next to City Hall (it was demolished on the occasion of the reconstruction of the Market Kosciuszko ) or the fountain in Planty (in its place already decorated flowerbed). There was also planned to create a lapidarium - but for now the idea was put aside for a shelf with ideas not realized.
- We received information from Mrs. Lucy Lisowska about matzevot. In the near future we will take action to be duly respected and transferred to the right place - comments Urszula Mirończuk, spokesman for the president.
