Sisterhood Building

This small building was erected in 1932 by the Sisterhood of the Austro-Galician Congregation, when Fannie Breitowich was chairman of the board and Anna (Breitowich) Weinstein was president of the Sisterhood. The purpose was to provide shelter and a bathroom for visitors to the cemetery.
