Imeni Lenina Kolkhoz

Apparently, there were no Jews living at the Imeni Lenina Kolkhoz (Lenin Collective Farm) prior to the Soviet-German War. After the outbreak of war, Jewish evacuees from the western regions of the USSR came to the collective farm, as they did to other villages in the Stalino district. The collective farm was occupied by the Germans in mid-October 1941, and the local Jewish evacuees were shot in early spring 1942. The Lenin Collective Farm was liberated by Red Army troops in mid-September 1943.
