- US Commission No. SLCE000065: Podolinec is located SW of Stara Lubovna. The isolated rural/agricultural hillside has no sign or marker. Reached by turning directly off a public road, access is open to all via a broken masonry wall without gate. 1-20 19th-20th century flat shaped limestone tombstones with Hebrew inscriptions are in original locations. Adjacent properties are agricultural. Rarely, private visitors stop. Vandalism is a moderate threat.
