The Merry Cemetery is a cemetery in the north of Romania famous for its colourful hand-painted wooden crosses, each with a painting and a poem in memory of the person buried below.
The exact period of the cemetery’s establishment is unknown. Since it was not marked on a cadastral map of 1865, most likely it appeared later. The earliest preserved gravestone relates to the end of the 19th century. The fence was installed by ESJF in September 2016.
