Valea lui Vlad Jewish Cemetery

The Cathedral of Saints Constantine and Elena was built between 1924 and 1933. Originally it was planned to build the church according to the design of the Assumption Cathedral in Astrakhan, but the Bucharest architect Adrian Gabrilescu slightly modified it. Visarion Puiu, Metropolitan Bishop of the Romanian Orthodox Church, wished to consecrate the cathedral immediately after its completion in the presence of King Carol II. However, in view of the weather, the monarch chose to postpone the ceremony until 14 October 1934. But one week before the scheduled date, King Alexander I of Yugoslavia was killed in Marseille. The cathedral was not consecrated until 1935.

The Alexandreni Jewish Cemetery was most likely established in the first half of the 19th century. It is marked on a map of the region from the 1860s, and epigraphic data shows it already existed in the 1850s. The cemetery remained in use after WWII, with the latest preserved gravestone dating to the 1970s.

The cemetery is abandoned and some parts are overgrown. The territory is used for livestock grazing. There are 150 old and 50 new tombstones. This cemetery was also used by the Nisporeni Jewish community. It seems that a part of the cemetery located outside of the current fenced area has been demolished and transformed into a garden and a pigsty.
