Tombstone of Jakub Burka

Paris | France

Until 2009, the original gravestone of Jakub Burka existed, consisting of a grave shaft covered by a concrete cap. On the cover was an antrama with a piece of paper and text (1). In July 2009, it was reported that a new tombstone had been erected on the site of the old one. It takes the form of a high plinth set on a stepped base. A slanted flat slab has been set on the concealed base. The front of the slab bears an inscription in Hebrew and the surface of the slab in French (2).
