Old Jewish Cemetery

Riga's Old Jewish Cemetery is a quiet memorial in Maskavas forstate, where the city's Jewish community buried its dead from the early 18th century until the 20th. The gravestones were destroyed after World War II and the area was turned into a Soviet park, so what remains is subdued, but the place gives real weight to this part of Riga's history.
