Information about the object:
Cemetery with Polish gravestones.

Completed works:
The aim of the project was to improve the state of preservation and documentation of the Polish cemetery in Ostrog, Ukraine.

The right-hand part of the cemetery was cleaned completely. The felling of the stand of trees on the left side of the road was also started, significantly expanding the field felled in previous years. During the felling, more than a dozen very well-preserved gravestones, plaques and monuments made of grey sandstone were exposed. After removing a small layer of soil, several tombs in the ground - some 3 metres deep - were uncovered.

In 2019, the most work was carried out - decided by far the largest commitment of forces and resources. Unnecessary stand of trees on an area of approximately 1.5 hectares was cut down.

Funding: The Polonics Institute programme "Polish cultural heritage abroad - volunteering".
