Section X Photo AF okt. 2010
In section X, grave positions and stone positions are unrelated.
In 28 cases the tombstones of the deceased are positioned in another row
than the graves. In a number of further cases, the sequence of graves differs from that
of the tombstones. Consequently the menu above has separate selections for grave rows
and stone rows.
Section X is the oldest one in Mollegade. It is located on areas annexed to the cemetary
in 1694, 1704, 1715 (the so-called sephardic part), 1748, and 1768. Towords the center
avenue it used to be demarcated by a wooden fence, and the graves along this fence (row X-18)
originally had tomb stones with the front turned towards Mollegade - like the newer graves
along the wall to Birkegade in section MB (cf. the chronological animation).
The oldest tombstones of section X (i.e. on the midmost parts of the rows) are today very difficult
to decipher.
There is a total of 940 known and locatable burials in section X
