The deep ravine between Syrets and Kurenivka is known all over the world as a symbol of genocide. A memorial to the victims of Nazism was erected at the site of the mass extermination and burial of 1941,000 Kyivans during 1941-43. On September 29-30, 1941 alone, the Nazis executed 33,000 Jews here. In 1976, a monument to the fallen citizens and prisoners of war was erected, in 1991 - a memorial sign "Menorah" in the form of a Jewish ritual seven candlesticks, in 2001 - a monument to the fallen children. Every year on September 29 there is a mourning procession.
