Cemetery in Kleciszcze

Cemetery with Polish gravestone monuments. Information about the cemetery has been published (see bibliography). According to Lewkowski and Walczak, the disused Catholic village cemetery is "in a residual state - new buildings have encroached on the original cemetery area. The terrain is flat, the cemetery is rectangular in shape, it is fenced with a wooden fence with a gate on the southern side, and it covers an area of 250 m². Only one tombstone of Helena Jadwiga Arygo, mother and daughter who tragically died on 15 July 1943, has survived. The cemetery area is overgrown with birches, oaks and lilac bushes."
