How to get there

Ponevezh cemetery, Rechov Chazon Ish, Bnei Brak, Israel — confirm the gate locally

The exact grave coordinates are not confirmed yet — go by the address and ask locally. We don't publish a coordinate we haven't checked.

1.Bnei Brak has several charedi batei hachaim and they are NOT one ground. Ponevezh and Zichron Meir sit next to each other on Rechov Chazon Ish; Shomrei Shabbos is a third. The Chazon Ish is in Zichron Meir and the Steipler is in Shomrei Shabbos — neither is here. Ask which cemetery for each kever you are coming for, because walking between them is not the same as walking within one.
2.This ground was opened in the 1960s by the Ponevezher Rov for his yeshiva, and it is largely the roshei yeshiva and mashgichim of Ponevezh. Reb Shach's kever is in a compound of its own rather than in the rows.
