Abstract
Heritage preservation sits at the nexus of many different fields, from the technological to the pedagogical. The work of the ESJF encompasses many of these fields. With these manuals, we hope to support various professionals working in the protection of Jewish cemeteries, and in doing so to share the expertise necessary for achieving long-term preservation. Tourism can play an important role in the long-term preservation of a heritage site, bringing with it attention, renewed interest in the site’s operation, and increased funding, but it also has its pitfalls, particularly with sites of religious significance, or those which evoke complex histories – and Jewish cemeteries are both. With sections on the different types of Jewish cemetery, the best features to draw attention to in your tour, and the rules and customs which must be observed, this manual provides you the template for organising an engaging, informative tour of the Jewish cemetery without violating religious rules or traditions.
