In the late 1940s after the Holocaust, the Communists went about destroying any last remnants of the ancient Jewish community in Brest. The largest Jewish cemetery in Belarus was turned over to become a sports arena. Soviet authorities "recycled" the headstones which are now being found in Belarusian road surfaces, pavements and gardens. Over the past six years 1,500 headstones belonging to the Brest cemetery were found all over the country.
