Jewish Monument Hasselt

Monument at the Jewish cemetery in memory of the eight Jewish citizens of Hasselt who were deported in 1942 and murdered in extermination camps in Eastern Europe.
The monument symbolizes a house: the doorpost and sill symbolize the last through which the deported Jews passed through and over, to their death. It is a right door jamb, which occupies an important place in Jewish tradition.
