Alternate name: Vojnice (Russian Communist name and Batorkeszi in Hungarian. Vojnice is located NE of Komarno. Last known Jewish burial was in 1942. The isolated suburban hillside has no sign or marker. Reached by turning directly off a public road, access is open to all via a broken masonry wall and a non-locking gate. Present size of the cemetery is 300x100 meters.

20-100 19th-20th century marble and granite flat shaped tombstones or finely smoothed and inscribed stones in original locations have Hebrew and Hungarian inscriptions. Within the cemetery limits is a pre-burial house. The property is Jewish cemetery and agriculture. Adjacent properties are agricultural and residential. Private visitors visit occasionally. No threats, but vegetation is a seasonal problem. Possible source: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. (Gary Binetter) [August 2000]
