The Catholic cemetery in Chukva, given the dates on the surviving tombstones, was probably established in the second half of the 19th century or even towards the end of it. It is located in the north-eastern part of this village, on the edge of the forest. It is a "typical village cemetery", in a somewhat neglected state (the gravestones grow directly out of the turf).

According to Hauser, there are no particularly artistically valuable tombstones there, but he mentions the tomb of Michał Kwaśniewicz (died 1924) in the central part of the necropolis, the tomb of the parish priest Jakub Schmidt (died 1881) decorated with relief symbols of the priesthood. Also of note, according to him, is the imposing monument on the grave of Barbara Nadybska (d. 1926) and Antoni Nadybski (d. 1938), topped by a stone Crucifixion Group and decorated with rhyming inscriptions: "He loved the people in the coarse / He knew the hard plight of misery / He stretched out as a brother / Two arms to these cottages // Honour his memory"

Also of interest is the mass grave to the right of the entrance of 15 victims of banderyism, murdered in 1945, whose perpetrators are not mentioned in the inscriptions.
