The exact period of the cemetery’s establishment is unknown. According to the dates on the preserved matzevot it can be assumed the cemetery already existed in the early 20th century. It can first be found marked on Russian maps of the region from the 1880s and, later, on a Russian map from 1907.
The Synagogue (Shilekhl) in Bershad is an Ashkenazi synagogue from the 19th century. It is a half-timbered synagogue.
The exact period of the cemetery’s establishment is unknown. According to IAJGS the last known Jewish burial dates to 1917. The cemetery could not be found marked on old maps of the region. Supposedly, it was founded no later than in the early 20th century. There are no gravestones remaining. The cemetery is abandoned and overgrown.
