A broken rose symbol appers on the matzevah of a person who died tragically young. The person name was Heinrich Hirsch, whose Hebrew name was Mose Hirsch HaKohen. He was born in 1855 and passed away in 1857, on the 6th of February.
The broken rose usually appears as a symbol of a life departed before time, on tombstones of children in both jewish and non-jewish cemeteries. With similar meaning, a broken tree could also appear on the tombstones.
The tombstone is located in the Mainz Jewish Cemetery, which is part of the Unesco World Heritage sites. Now I'm working on a new zine that will present this jewish heritage sites for all.
