Summary and Remarks

Note by Vladimir Levin, Polonnoe (17 June 2011)

Synagogue onPrivokzal’naia St.85

According to the information from an old gentleman with bike and scythe, during WWII there was a hospital for soldiers. I asked if it was a German hospital and he agreed. After the war the building was used as a club. Now somebody bought it and is ready to sell or to let.
