The exact grave coordinates are not confirmed yet — go by the address and ask locally. We don't publish a coordinate we haven't checked.

1.The cemetery is in the southern part of the town, along Tadeusza Kościuszki. It is in two parts — the older from the seventeen hundreds, the newer from after 1870 — and has been a listed monument since 1989.
2.It was devastated by the Germans during the war, so expect a damaged ground rather than a kept one.
3.There are ruins of an ohel beside the cemetery. Sources say it PROBABLY belonged to a tzaddik of the Horowitz family and are explicit that this is not certain, and local testimony rejects the other suggestion that it was a mortuary chapel. Nobody should be told whose it is until somebody knows.
