    The cemetery dates from the early 18th century and is an important monument to the local Jewish community. Around 450 tombstones in the baroque and classicist style stand here in the shade of trees, covered with moss and lichen, overgrown with climbing ivy. It is no coincidence that the scenery is reminiscent of film sets as we know them from the Dracula films and only the very brave dare to come here at dusk.

    After the expulsion of the Jews from Vienna and Lower Austria by Emperor Leopold I on February 23, 1670, many of them settled in southwest Moravia. A Jewish community also emerged in Piesling around 1727. The Jewish and Christian communities were administered separately.

    It is located a bit hidden in the forest on the outskirts of Pisecne. Many graves have German inscriptions.
