Who is Commemorated?

The roughly one thousand Jewish residents of Izyaslav murdered at this site during the Holocaust.

Description

This monument took the shape of a short obelisk with a flat top with smooth sides carved from a block of granite. It's base was a connected cube of the same stone.

On the monument's front face is a plaque with an inscription. When the monument was first erected in 1949, the inscription was Russian, but after Ukraine gained it's independence the plaque was replaced by one in Ukrainian (after 1991). Neither inscription mentioned the Jewish identities of the victims.
