Borský Mikuláš cemetery

The cemetery can be seen on the left side of Road 1143 from Borský Mikuláš to Šaštín. The surrounding area is covered with a pine forest. The cemetery is not enclosed. It was revitalized in 2009 through cooperation between the municipality and the Federation of Jewish Communities in the Slovak Republic. There are 115 tombstones in the cemetery, 20 of which have survived only in fragments or are in a significant state of degradation. The oldest tombstones are dated 1831. The most recent one belongs to Berthold Kohn, who died on March 26, 1937. A very common surname is Weinwurm, the family from which the well-known architect Friedrich Weinwurm came. Other frequently occurring names include Grünhut, Winter, as well as Wollner, Lustig, Steiner, Katz, and others. The oldest tombstones are made of sandstone, while the more recent ones are made of granite and marble. [Ľudmila Pártošová, Peter Werner]
