The cemetery in Stebnik is located in the eastern part of the town, about 2 kilometres from the centre. The oldest preserved tombstones with Polish inscriptions date back to the 1890s, i.e. the period when the village of Stebnik became a town. The vast majority of the inhabitants were Ruthenians, so gravestones with inscriptions in Ukrainian are predominant.

This necropolis is still active and therefore well maintained. The spatial layout has been preserved, with a main alley and several side alleys that diverge from it.

Right at the entrance is the magnificent burial chapel of the Terlecki family, owners of the estate. It is neo-Romanesque, with Polish and Ukrainian inscriptions. It was built of brick and faced with stone. On the back wall is a large medallion with a mask of the Suffering Christ and an inscription plaque in black marble, with four photographs of the deceased. A stone frieze of semi-circular arcades is discernible in the finial of the side walls. The whole is crowned by two stone crosses.

Hauser's most significant gravestone, located deep in the cemetery, is a monument with a stone cross on the grave of Aleksander Zdanowicz, "hero of the 1863 struggle for independence", erected by the T.S.E. in Stebnik. He also mentions the ornate stone monuments on the graves of Aniela (d. 1936) and Franciszek (d. 1931) Spring and Jozef Hatalski (d. 1932), decorated with neo-Gothic spires and garlands. Of the rock gravestones, he mentions: a monument to Kazia Pacakowa (d. 1938), topped with a statue of the Immaculate, and a monument to Rysio Branicki (d. 1937), topped with a statue of an angel.

Documentation was made for the cemetery (25 tombstone cards) stored in the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage. Information about the cemetery published (see bibliography).
