Krupiec
A small town in Dubno province, near Radzivilov

Translated by Thia Persoff

In the 19th century, about 100 Jewish families lived in Krupets. The town was near the Austrian (Galicia) border, and it had a border-crossing station. Because of that, there were many restrictions imposed on it, and that caused the Jews to leave, never to return. During the two world wars, there were no Jews living in Krupets.
