Marek Wojtanowicz (08/18/2020)
It is located in the municipal cemetery and is a separate quarters. The quarter has a square plan and is surrounded by an original concrete fence in the form of a wall covered with a gable roof. There are numerous windows in the wall with forged grates made of thick steel bars. Entrance through the original blacksmith's gate. Opposite the entrance gate, a decorative brick wall with a large inscription board has been incorporated into the fence. It has an inscription in German: ZUM HEIL DES VATERLANDS VOM TOD BERÜHRT, ERGLÜHT / DES ÄRMSTEN LEBENS ENGE SCHALE VERZAUBERT AUF / GLEICH DEM ERHABNEN GRAAL. "For the sake of the Motherland, the agonized heat is suddenly kindled in the lowest creature and its existence, even if the tightest is transformed into a crater equal to the lofty Grail" 23 soldiers of the Austro-Hungarian army and one soldier of the Russian army were buried in the cemetery. There are 12 tombstones in the form of concrete pedestals topped with cast-iron crosses; 11 tombstones are one-armed Maltese crosses, one is a two-armed (Russian) cross. The graves are enclosed in concrete frames.
