It was established in December 1879, and it was built to designs of the English architect Webster Paulson. HistoryThe Jewish Cemetery is located in the Ta' Sammat area of Marsa, directly adjacent to the Turkish Military Cemetery.[1] It was established in December 1879 and it was designed by the English architect Webster Paulson.[1] The proximity of the Jewish and Turkish cemeteries led Lieutenant-Governor Sir Harry Luke to state that the area "is the only place in the world where Arabs and Jews lie peacefully together",[1] albeit Turks are not actually Arabs. The Commonwealth War Graves Commission cares for six graves inside the cemetery: three Commonwealth military burials (one from World War I and two from World War II), one non-war burial and two war graves from other nationalities.[2] The cemetery is still in use,[1] but it is often kept locked.[2] The cemetery contains the graves of people from Poland, Spain, Russia, Hungary, Australia, China and other European countries.[3] ArchitectureThe Jewish Cemetery is built in a neoclassical style.[1] Its architecture is unremarkable, and it is overshadowed by Emanuele Luigi Galizia's Turkish Military Cemetery.[1] The only significant architectural feature of the cemetery is its main gate, which has decorations which are similar to Torah finials.[1] Below the pediment, there is an Italian inscription indicating that the government granted the cemetery to the Jewish community in a public act on 8 December 1879.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 {{cite journal|last1=Gauci|first1=Matthew|title=New light on Webster Paulson and his architectural idiosyncrasies|journal=Proceedings of History Week|date=2009|pages=142–143|url=http://melitensiawth.com/incoming/Index/Proceedings%20of%20History%20Week/PHW2009/09s.pdf|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20170729222529/http://melitensiawth.com/incoming/Index/Proceedings%20of%20History%20Week/PHW2009/09s.pdf|archivedate=29 July 2017}} 2. ^1 {{cite web |title=Marsa Jewish Cemetery |url=https://www.cwgc.org/find-a-cemetery/cemetery/11207/marsa-jewish-cemetery/ |website=Commonwealth War Graves Commission |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20181209152221/https://www.cwgc.org/find-a-cemetery/cemetery/11207/marsa-jewish-cemetery/ |archivedate=9 December 2018}} 3. ^{{cite web |last1=Harroch |first1=Meyer |title=The Hidden Gem: Discovering the Jewish Heritage of Malta and its History |url=http://newyorkjewishtravelguide.com/2017/04/28/the-hidden-gem-discovering-the-jewish-heritage-of-malta-and-its-history/ |website=The New York Jewish Travel Guide |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20171006073334/http://newyorkjewishtravelguide.com/2017/04/28/the-hidden-gem-discovering-the-jewish-heritage-of-malta-and-its-history/ |archivedate=6 October 2017 |date=28 April 2017}} External links{{commons category inline|Jewish Cemetery, Marsa}} 8 : Marsa, Malta|Cemeteries in Malta|Jewish cemeteries|Jews and Judaism in Malta|Neoclassical architecture in Malta|Limestone buildings in Malta|Buildings and structures completed in 1879|1879 establishments in Malta |
