Berezne (Ukrainian: Березне, IPA: [beˈrɛzne]) is a city in Rivne Oblast, Ukraine.

[1] Berezne (historically known also as Bereźno as well as Polish: Jędrzejów, and Ukrainian: Андріїв)[2][3] was established in 1446 within the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth.

[4] In the Second Polish Republic during the interwar period, Bereźne bore the distinction of being one of the two cities in Poland with the most Jewish inhabitants in the country.

The Jews of Berezne, who then numbered approximately 3,000, were forced to live in three buildings surrounded by walls.

Many of the Jews that escaped into the woods were caught and delivered to the Germans by the local Ukrainians, who aided the SS in the process of "ethnic cleansing" known as the Holocaust by bullets.

Other attacks occurred in the second half of that year, and as a result Polish survivors fled to larger towns, such as Rowne.

For many years there stood a monument memorializing the over 3,000 men, women, and children who were slaughtered by the Nazis and local Ukrainian collaborators, at the site of their mass grave.
