The Lo Tishkach [לא תשכח] European Jewish Cemeteries Initiative aims to guarantee the effective and lasting preservation and protection of Jewish cemeteries and mass graves throughout Europe. To this end, it is working to collate all known data on Europe’s Jewish burial grounds and to incorporate this vast source of information in an online database so that it is readily and easily accessible to everyone. As of 2015, the database has over 11,000 individual records of cemeteries and mass graves.
