Nahalat Yitzhak Cemetery ((ヘブライ語:בית העלמין נחלת יצחק)) is a Jewish municipal burial ground in Givatayim, Israel. Founded in 1932, it includes more than 30,000 graves, including those of Israeli political and cultural figures, and Rebbes of several Hasidic dynasties.〔 The cemetery contains several tracts of military graves and mass graves of unidentified soldiers from the period of the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. It also features memorials to Jewish communities destroyed in the Holocaust. The cemetery is operated by the Chevra Kadisha of Greater Tel Aviv. The National Insurance Institute has declared it a "closed" cemetery,〔 although burials occasionally take place here for people who pre-purchased their plots. ==History== The area for the Nahalat Yitzhak Cemetery was purchased by the Chevra Kadisha of Greater Tel Aviv in response to the population growth in Tel Aviv and the increasingly limited space in the city's first municipal burial ground, the Trumpeldor Cemetery. The Chevra Kadisha acquired a field located far from the city, on the eastern side of the Ayalon River. The site could be accessed only via a dirt road leading from a wadi, whose sides were very steep. During heavy rains, when the river overflowed its banks into the wadi, the site became completely inaccessible. Consequently, the Chevra Kadisha used its own money to pay for the construction of a concrete bridge to span the river and bring people to the cemetery.〔 Nahalat Yitzhak Cemetery was dedicated on 30 June 1932 (26 Sivan 5692).〔 Together with the neighborhood that grew up around it, it was named for Rabbi Yitzchak Elchanan Spektor, Chief Rabbi of Kovno, Lithuania.
