September is one of the most tragic months for the Nikolaev region since the Shoah. It was in September 1941 that mass executions of the Jewish population began.
That is why every year, the members of the Jewish community of Nikolaev come to the memorable places and honor the dead. However, the atrocities of war and military actions in Nikolaev and its entire region, constant shelling and air strikes render this annual event impossible.
Today, when most members of the communities are scattered around the world, the "Memory Marathon" project was initiated with the address to the members of the Jewish community to send photos from memorable places of those countries and cities where they are now.
Alexey Pavlishchev, for example, decided to share the photos of his January trip to Europe, taken near the monuments to the victims of the Shoah in Poland, Austria, Hungary.
