The image shows an inscription on a stone wall, likely at the Old Jewish Cemetery in Prague.
This cemetery is one of the oldest surviving Jewish cemeteries in the world. The text is in
Hebrew and reads "Chevra Kadisha" (burial society) and "Gomlei Chasadim"
(those who perform charity). A Star of David can be seen at the top of the inscription.
The Old Jewish Cemetery was founded in the first half of the 15th century.
