US Commission No. SLCE000352

Tesedikovo is located in Galanta, NW of Nove Zamky. The isolated flat urban location has a sign or plaque in Slovakian. Reached by turning directly off a public road, access is open to all via a continuous fence without gate. The approximate size of cemetery is now 10x25 meters. 1 to 20 19th-20th century granite flat shaped tombstones or finely smoothed and inscribed stones have Hebrew and German inscriptions. Within the limits of the cemetery are no structures. The unknown owner uses property for symbolic Jewish cemetery only. Adjacent properties are residential. Occasionally, private visitors stop. No maintenance had been done. Now, occasionally, individuals clear or clean.

 

2009 NOTE: Location of this town is very confusing. Tesedikovo is in Nitriansky region, Sala district. Galanta District is in Trnavsky region. Novy Zamky is in Region Nitriansky / District Nové Zámky.
