Roman Catholic cemetery decommissioned in the post-war years, date of foundation unknown. Located by the local road leading to Lelikowo. The area of the former cemetery is fenced off, no traces of graves or tombstones remain. On the eastern side, the area is bordered by the site of the former ghetto, where a wooden command building and an obelisk from 1951, commemorating the place of execution of Jews from Dywin and the surrounding area, have been preserved.
