Murder Story of Wilejka Jews on the Osipowicze Road

The Germans used the Osipowicze Road, the southwestern exit from Wilejka, as the site of the fourth massacre of the local Jews. On November 7, 1942, the Wilejka SD took 70-80 "useless" Jews from the town to an abandoned building known as Lavrinovich's farm, which stood along that road (near the Jewish cemetery), and burned them to death. The members of the Wilejka Jewish council were among those killed on that day.
