Bar Old Jewish Cemetery
At the end of 1942, the survivors of the two mass murder operations were shot in the New Jewish Cemetery in Bar, close to the Frunze kolkhoz. The exact number of victims remains unknown. In addition, several dozen Jewish professionals – doctors and artisans – were shot at the same site. They had managed to flee to the village of Balki in Transnistria at the beginning of the occupation, thanks to the assistance of the Jewish community. After the August and October 1942 mass murders, they were brought back by the Germans and shot at the Old Jewish Cemetery in Bar; the exact date of the murder and number of victims remains unknown. Lastly, after their Jewish parents had been murdered in the ghetto, children from mixed marriages were taken from their non-Jewish parents and shot at the Jewish cemetery.

On August 19, 1942, the inhabitants of the first ghetto were taken from their homes and brought to the local stadium, where the Germans selected those unable to work – the elderly, the infirm, young children, and women with children – altogether between 1,742 and 3,000 people (according to German and Jewish sources respectively). They were shot in the field of the Frunze kolkhoz, two kilometers from Bar in the direction of the village of Garmaki, in a hollow on the right side of the road. The massacre was carried out by the Kamenets Podolsky SD office, Gendarmerie and local auxiliary police. The rest of the ghetto’s residents were brought back to the ghetto, which shrank in size.
