Historical overview

The exact location of the Obukhiv Jewish cemetery is undetermined. According to some locals, it was located in the Lukavystya neighbourhood and has since been built over. However, there is no evidence to support these claims. The Jewish cemetery can be found marked on a map of the region from 1900, on the northern outskirts of the town (at the coordinates listed above).
