Cementerio Judío de Charata

About this place

Jewish cemetery of Charata, on National Route 89. Jewish families reached the area from 1917, and above all from 1923, coming from Moisés Ville, Dora and Montefiore to farm cotton; in 1936 the community published Chaker Vort here, a monthly magazine in Yiddish. AMIA’s catalogue of Jewish farming colonies documents that history. Like every rural cemetery it is usually locked: arrange a visit with the local community before going. There are no services or food.
