אוהל המגיד ממעזריטש (אניפאלי)

Ohel of the Maggid of Mezeritch, Reb Zusha of Anipoli & Reb Yehuda Leib HaKohen

Jewish cemetery, Hannopil (Anipoli), Shepetivka Raion, Khmelnytskyi Oblast, Ukraine

  • The Maggid spent his final years in Anipoli and is buried here alongside two disciples — this is the burial site, distinct from the town of Mezhyrichi with which he is titularly associated.
  • Hannopil is a small village typically reached on organized kivrei tzaddikim trips; nearest towns are Slavuta (~30 km) and Shepetivka; nearest active community is Khmelnytskyi city.
  • Ukraine wartime travel advisories apply — confirm conditions and access before traveling.
  • What stands here is a common marker, not three matzeivos. The cemetery was destroyed in the churban and one memorial was put up afterwards for the Maggid, Reb Zusha and the others together. So you are davening at the ground they are in rather than at an individual kever, and nobody can point to which part of it is whose.
