Topcharly Well

During the night of November 14/15, 1941 an SS detachment from Fraydorf arrived in Peretsfeld. With the assistance of the village elder Jews who were still living there, as well as Jews who had fled there from other cities, towns, and villages in the Crimean Peninsula, a total of about 100 people, were forced into the village clubhouse. From there the victims were taken by truck in two groups to the Topcharly farmstead, several kilometers from Peretsfeld, and shot at a well there . According to local inhabitants, Jews from surrounding localities were also shot there. The perpetrators were SS men and local auxiliary policemen.
