Yelisavetgrad (now Kropyvnytskyy, Ukraine) was a city in the southwestern part of the Russian Empire, where there was a large Jewish population. In 1881, a pogrom occurred here, triggering first a wave of anti-Jewish violence, and then a large wave of emigration from Eastern Europe. The history  of Jewish life in Yelizavetgrad reflects the developments of Judaism in Eastern Europe in the course of the 20th century.
