Szumsk - Commemoration of Jewish Victims
tags.commemoration

In 1991 a memorial was erected at the murder site of the Szumsk Jews. It has a wall with a bas-relief with figures of Holocaust victims -- Jewish men, women, and children who had perished in Szumsk. The memorial has a black marble monument, topped with a Star...
