Title

Prietrž cemetery

Description

The cemetery is located in the northeastern part of the village. It is part of the educational trail Hussite Walls and is marked with an information board. A paved path leads from the information board to the walls. Only two gravestones from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries remain at the cemetery site. According to registry records, the Grünfeld and Sonnenfeld families lived in Prietrž as early as the beginning of the 19th century. Until the end of the 19th century—and possibly even later—Jews from Prietrž were buried mainly in Sobotište, but also in Senica. [Ľudmila Pártošová, Peter Werner]
