Anykščiai (Oniksht in Yiddish), a city in northeastern Lithuania, was home to a Jewish community established since the 18th century, active in commerce and crafts. In the summer of 1941, shortly after the German invasion, the Einsatzgruppen and Lithuanian auxiliary units murdered virtually all the Jews of the city in mass shootings.
