| Cemetery Description: |
Cemetery records provided by Chesed Shel Emet, mitzvatemet.com. The cemetery is located on Zhitomirskaya Street. One operated from the end of the 18th century until the fall of 1973. The cemetery survived the Second World War, but was damaged in the post-war period. Some of the gravestones were moved to the central part of the cemetery by decision of the authorities, and the rest were used to build highways. In the cemetery, there is a memorial to the victims of the Holocaust and the grave of Rabbi Levi-Yitzchak ben Meir Berdichevsky. The community restored his tomb in 1991 and reconstructed it in 2007.
