~ Roztoka Cemetery ~

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

The Jewish cemetery is located outside of town, on the mountainside, behind a house along the road. It has a wall around it and seems
well-maintained by goats.

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.
