The new Jewish cemetery of Brody was established in the 1830s. It is one the most beautiful and well-preserved 19-th century Jewish cemeteries in Ukraine. It is famous for its stone carvings and poetic epitaphs. Presumably, the cemetery was operating until WWII.
Jewish history of the city of Brody here

The Old cemetery presumably emerged in the 17th century, since there was already Jewish self-government in Brody. It was closed in the 1830s due to a decree of the Austrian Government in connection with the cholera epidemic. Presumably, the cemetery was demolished and built over during the Soviet period.
