History/Provenance

Several thousand Jews from Mykulychyn and Hungary perished here. The monument was erected by the efforts of the family of the Holocaust Survivor Max Privler and Nimchuk family, which rescued Privler during the war [Solovka; Izrail po-russki].

In 2010, another Holocaust Survivor from Mykulychyn Ruth Michel Rosenstock came to Mykulychyn and cleaned up the killing site, putting a memorial plaque there [March of Life].

A new monument appeared near the Soviet one in 2020.
