Buczacz (Buchach in Ukrainian), a city in eastern Galicia, is best known as the birthplace of Nobel Prize in Literature laureate S.Y. Agnon (1966), whose major work is devoted to it. The Jewish community existed there since the 16th century and represented a large share of the population. During the Shoah, the Jews of Buczacz were massacred in several "actions" in 1942–1943; survivors were deported to Bełżec.
