About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

It is said that the Jews bought the land for Rakov Cemetery in 1684. In 1956 the local authorities built a grocery store and a market on this plot. In 2002 the Hurovetz family from South Afrika and the Grinholtz family from Israel donated money and a fence was built around the cemetery. A mass grave for 132 young Jewish people, murdered by the Germans in the beginning of WWII, is in the Rakov/Rakaw Cemetery.
