About About the place

Oskar Schindler's grave is situated in the Protestant Cemetery on Mount Zion, near David's Tomb. The site serves as a poignant memorial to a complex figure who, despite his initial affiliations, demonstrated extraordinary courage in rescuing over a thousand Jewish people during World War II. Visitors often leave small stones on the grave as a Jewish tradition of remembrance. The cemetery itself is historic, but its upkeep has been a concern for some, with reports of disrepair and litter. Finding the grave can be challenging, requiring navigating the cemetery's lower levels.
