This is the translation of the Memorial (Yizkor) Book of Jewish community of Drohichin, Belarus. This history of Drohitchin/Drahichyn --in Belarus -- covers the nearly 500-year old Jewish community that had almost 5,000 Jewish residents at the start of World War II. This book is both history and memoir, and it includes poetry, tributes, and many photos. Also contained is a necrology of the Shoah victims from Drohitchin and nearby towns murdered in the two Drohitchin massacres ( July 25 and October 15, 1942). Former Drohitchin residents and descendants contributed first-hand accounts to this book so that future generations could learn about the long history of this once vibrant Jewish community. Read and treasure this heart-wrenching account of a Jewish world that no longer exists. Drohitchin is located 40 miles W of Pinsk, 33 miles East of Kobryn, 16 miles East of Antopol.
