~ Tur'ya Bystraya Cemetery ~
Jewish families that lived in Tur'ya Bystraya, and possibly other nearby villages, used the Tur'ya Bystraya cemetery as the final resting
place for their loved ones.
The Jewish cemetery is located in the town, along a road. It has a fence built around it and is well-maintained.
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.
The fragments of gravestones buried here are from the old cemetery, located across the road, on the hillside. This memorial was erected in their memory.
"In memory of those laid to rest here in graves without names"
