The cemetery is located near the top of the Wall (523 m above sea level), by the road and walking trails (green and yellow). Heinrich Scholz designed it. The cemetery has a rectangular plan, at the back there is a central monument in the form of a stone pyramid topped with a cross. the entrance gate is very interesting. There are stone pillars on which there are stone sculptures of ancient helmets. 199 soldiers of the Austro-Hungarian army and 138 Russian were buried here. Among the buried there is Franz Hofer, a painter from Graz.

The cemetery is quite good. It has all the elements. Particularly in it is that the gate is decorated with the heads of two ancient warriors. The designer of the necropolis - Heinrich Scholz - liked to perform in such performances. Inside, we find an unusual tombstone - an Austrian painter and graphic artist - Hans Hoffer.

N 49.8856 E 20.9178 - good access, parking place. Cemetery designed by Heinrich Scholz - what you can learn from a recital of ancient helmets crowning the entry columns to the cemetery. Nearly 350 Austrian and Russian soldiers are buried here.
