Khotyn (Hotin in Romanian), a medieval fortress on the Dniester in Bessarabia (present-day Chernivtsi oblast, Ukraine), was home to a significant Jewish community attested from the 17th century, among the most notable in the region. In 1941, during the Romanian-German advance, the Jews of Khotyn suffered massacres and deportations to the camps of Transnistria as part of the Shoah in Romania.
