~ Vil'shynky Cemetery ~

Jewish families that lived in Vil'shynky, and possibly other nearby villages, used the Vil'shynky 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 only has remnants of tombstones.
The neighbor was kind enough to save the writing from a stone that was once in the cemetery.

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.
