~ History ~

Jews probably settled in Stavne in the first half of the 18th century.

In 1880, the Jewish population was 66.

With the Hungarian occupation of Stavne in March, 1939, Jews were persecuted and pushed out of their occupations. In 1940-41, dozens of Jews from Stavne were drafted into forced labor battalions and others were drafted for service on the Eastern front, where most died.

In 1941, a few Jewish families without Hungarian citizenship were expelled to Nazi occupied Ukrainian territory, to Kamenets-Podolski, and murdered there.

The remaining Jews of Stavne were deported to Auschwitz late May, 1944.

A great many of the Jews from Stavne were murdered in Auschwitz and any survivors settled elsewhere.

In 2001, Stavne had about 1,623 inhabitants and no Jews live there today.
