According to ESJF European Jewish Cemeteries Initiative, the exact period of the cemetery’s establishment is unknown. But it emerged no later than the early 20th century, as the earliest tombstone dates to 1919. It is also marked on a map from the 1900’s. The cemetery was used by the Jews of Tcholivka. It was restored in the 1970’s. There are about 100 gravestones. There are several matzevot with barely legible inscriptions that can be dated to an earlier period. Last burial was in 1998. The older part of the cemetery is destroyed; there are also monuments with fences.
Date of oldest tombstone: 1919
Date of newest tombstone: 1998
The cemetery is located opposite No.26 Kyivska Street. Follow the dirt road for 290m and then the cemetery is on the right in the wood (opposite the Orthodox cemetery).
