Title: Czech Republic Jewish Cemetery
Caption: In this picture taken on Monday Oct. 26, 2015, Tomas Jelinek displays part of a tombstone in efforts to restore a former Jewish cemetery in Prostejov, Czech Republic. A team of volunteers, led by Jelinek, is trying to restore the graveyard desecrated by Nazi's over 70 years ago. Some of its 2000 removed tombstones have been used for decades as construction materials while the graveyard itself now is a park where people walk their dogs. (AP Photo/Petr Josek)
