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

The Jewish cemetery is located in the town, next to a house along the road. It has a wall around it and was maintained, but the people who contracted with a neighbor to maintain this cemetery have failed to pay for maintenance and now, it is overgrown. People need to honor their contracts with the locals. |

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. |
