The evolution of the landscape of the Old Jewish cemetery of Thessaloniki: an extreme case of reusage

An interesting case study about the Old Jewish cemetery of Thessaloniki in Greece that was presented at the AGM 2019.
The Old Jewish cemetery of Thessaloniki

Introduction

A landscape can change as radically as to be destroyed and reconstructed even more than once.

Such is the case of the landscape of the Old Jewish cemetery of Thessaloniki in Greece. At first, during the German occupation, the cemetery was destroyed, and afterwards, the area became a large portion of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH).
