Entrance to local cemetery is now paid in Pinsk

The entrance to Pinsk Cemetery has become paid. The administration explains the decision by a desire to find additional sources to pay maintenance costs. A driver will have to pay 2210 roubles to enter the cemetery now. Pinsk City Cemetery is situated 10 kilometers away from the city – in the village of Pasyanichy. Therefore, many Pinskers go to visit their departed relatives in their own cars.

If visitors refuse to pay, they will have to leave their cars beyond the cemetery. The entrance has remained free for pedestrians.
