Breakfast and the Jewish Cemetery

Our last day in Salzwedel we had a delicious and enormous breakfast fit for royalty, cooked, prepared and presented by Roland, the proprietor of the hotel, who also performed a magic trick with our apple.

On the way to catch the train we stopped by the Jewish cemetery. The cemetery was lush and peaceful, due to the fact that most of the markers are overgrown. Apparently, friends and families are responsible for keeping the foliage trimmed and since there are very few Jews left in Salzwedel . . . It should be noted that the non-Jewish cemetery was equally overgrown. Most heartrending at the Jewish cemetery was the line of graves of people who had died just days after the liberation of the camps.
