Waldheim Jewish Cemeteries

The Free Sons of Israel Cemetery has a distinctive character of its own. Monuments are a bit more widely spaced here, and include an angel (now decapitated, at right) and a statue of a small girl. The urns atop the two columns of the gate give it a Classical look.

This cemetery is as much inspired by rural Victorian cemeteries in America as it was by traditional Jewish cemeteries. It would not look at all out of place if it was a section of Rosehill instead of Waldheim.
