Background

From 1944 to 1946, a column of forced labourers from Kirgizia were allocated to the village of Romanovo. Those who died there were buried, in individual and mass graves, in a separate plot next to the village graveyard, two kms southwest of the village. The number buried there is unknown.

In August 2002, members of Perm Youth Memorial, then taking part in the “Rivers of Memory” expedition, established a commemorative sign at the plot, a wooden post on which a crescent moon was cut.
