Jewish cemetery (Brody)

The Brody Jewish Cemetery is a Jewish cemetery in the town of Brody in Lviv Oblast, western Ukraine .

The cemetery, in which there are several thousand (the figures vary between almost 3000 and over 5000) gravestones , was occupied from 1834 to 1939. This is the so-called "new" cemetery. The "old" cemetery no longer exists.

In the western part of the cemetery, on which there are hardly any gravestones and which has a patchy fence, some of the residents of the area have created vegetable patches (as of July 2016). On the western edge of the cemetery there is a trilingual memorial stone that commemorates the Jews who were shot in the neighboring forest during the Reinhardt campaign .
