Pylypets' (Fülöpfalva, Filipec), Ukraine Cemetery

Pylypets' Cemetery

Jewish families that lived in Pylypets', and possibly other nearby villages, used the Pylypets' cemetery as the final resting place for their loved ones.

The Jewish cemetery is located outside of town, along a road. It is surrounded by a fence, on a very steep hill and on the hill top. It is maintained
(by goats and cows) and it appeared that the cemetery is visited periodically by descendants.

In the documents section of the "Other" tab, you will find a link to a U.S. Commission Report completed in 2005 that attempted to document
Jewish Cemeteries (and Synagogues and Mass Grave Sites) in Ukraine. This cemetery is listed in the Zakarpats'ka oblast.

The cemetery was renovated in 5661 (2000-01) by the grandchildren of Shmuel and Yenta Freida ZOLDAN, in their blessed memory. He was the Dayan (Judge) in Pylypets and is buried here. Everything was done for the souls, therefore please observe dress code and the cemetery should not be visited by those who do not observe shabbos (Sabbath) and on holidays--- by Family BERKOWITZ, Bnai Berak, Israel
