~ Kushnitsa Cemetery ~

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

The Jewish cemetery is located on a mountaintop outside the village, down a dirt road, behind the village cemetery. It is bordered by an iron-bar fence.

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 not listed as well as many other village cemeteries of the Zakarpats'ka oblast.
