Annopol - Commemoration of Jewish Victims

Commemoration
In the early 1990s, on the personal initiative of Semyon Orshtein and with the approval of the local authorities, a fenced-off black marble monument was erected in the area of the former brick factory. It bears the following identical inscriptions in Yiddish and Russian:

"This is the eternal resting place of 200 people from Annopol, who were murdered by the Fascists between 1941-1943."

The remains of the Jewish victims who had been killed at the site, and of those who had been shot near the village clinic, were reburied at the local Jewish cemetery with the assistance of young, religiously observant Jews from Moscow.
