Residents of a Belarus town on the border with Poland made the macabre discovery of thousands of Jewish gravestones that have been used to construct buildings, roads, even garden paving. The headstones have been turning up in locations all over Brest over the past six years, with around 1,500 discovered so far. Hundreds were discovered in May during the construction of a supermarket, with headstones unearthed by diggers.
