Old Jewish Cemeteries

There were two Jewish cemeteries in Stanislawow.  One of them, the newer cemetery dating from the 1920s or '30s,  still has hundreds of surviving tombstones, thanks to the efforts of Rabbi Kolesnik in Ivano Frankovsk, and also the organization listed below. The other, ancient, Jewish cemetery has been completely destroyed and is currently the site of a film cinema. There are no surviving tombstones in the latter.
