Vatra Dornei is a city and a ski resort in the north of Romania,
in Suceava County. It includes the proper city and three villages:
Argestru, Roşu and Todireni.
Until the 1950's it had a mixed population of Romanians,
Ukrainians, Jews and Germans. The big synagogue and a picturesque
Jewish cemetery bear testimony to Jewish presence in the area.
