  Memorials  Holocaust Memorial at the Killing Site in Garadok (Gorodok) near Vitebsk, Belarus, 1983

Garadok (Gorodok) was under German occupation from 10 July 1941 until 24 December 1943 [Wikipedia]. In late August 1941, a ghetto was established [Al'tman 232]. The mass murders of the Garadok (Gorodok) Jews were carried out several times in a number of locations. By the time of liberation. non of the local Jews survived. [Wikipedia]. 

Immediately upon the end of the war, the victims' relatives began to look for the precise place of the mass grave near Biarozavka (Berezovka) where in the first half of August 1941, between 120 to 200 Jews were shot [Shulman; Yahad-In Unum]. The place was quickly identified, and in 1965 the monument was established [Shulman; Al'tman 232]. However, in the 1970s the decision to erect a new monument was made. The project was implemented by A.B. Bydman with the support of P.P. Shershen', the representative of the local authorities. Through their efforts, in the summer of 1983, the monument under discussion was opened [Wikipedia].
In the years of Perestroika, the memorial was vandalized: the metal plaque was stolen. On it there was a following Russian-language dedication agreed with the authorities: "To the Soviet citizens of Gorodok shot by the German-fascist invaders in 1941." Later, in its place, the concrete slab with the words "To the Jews - victims of fascism" was set [Wikipedia].
According to the tradition of the Garadok (Gorodok) Jewish community, annually on Tisha B'av the local Jews hold a commemorative ceremony at the place of the monument [Shulman]. 

There is another monument in the town's vicinity related to the Holocaust events. It was erected in December 2020 instead of the old one that dated back to the 1980s.
