TARCHOMIN CEMETERY - CMENTARZ W TARCHOMINIE

Tarchomin, the Northern district of Warsaw where I live, was a small village in the outskirts of Warsaw in the past. Tarchomin Cemetery (Cmentarz w Tarchominie) was established probably in the 18th century, and was designed for the Tarchomin village parish.

The chapel dedicated to Saint Mary Magdalene (Maria Magdalena) was built in 1830 and is located in the very center of the cemetery.

Tarchomin village, located close to Wisla river, suffered from the floods every year. People would escape from their homes in a hurry, seeking rescue on the higher ground, especially on this cemetery located on the hill.

You told a story with your photographs, a cemetery with history and a place for safety from the floods.
Photographs are excellent as they always are.
