None of the stones is standing; and many are partially buried. This was formerly a very prosperous town with a large Jewish population. Today, there are only a few hundred inhabitants. All the stones are supposedly in Hebrew except one; it is in Russian and marks the grave of a Jewish partisan commander. Many graves were dug up after the war in a search of gold. Many stones used for foundations and pathways are supposedly still visible." [2000]
