About this cemetery
Abdal is the main cemetery of Simferopol, located on the northern edge of the city on the top and gentle northern slope of a ridge of the Crimean Mountains. The land was allotted in 1964 and burials began in 1964-1965. It is divided into Abdal-1 and Abdal-2, and new plots were reported to have been added to Abdal-2 in 2026. The name comes from an older settlement called Abdal, first mentioned in 1778, which later split into the villages of Eski Abdal and Yani Abdal.
