Grave of Polish Army soldiers killed in the Polish-Bolshevik war and a Pole murdered by the Germans in 1944.

On the site of the former Dochów manor, in a field among the birch trees, stands a walled fenced chapel, in front of which two concrete gravestones lie on the ground. One is dedicated to two soldiers killed in 1920, and the other to Adam Pacenko, who was killed in 1944. The inscriptions on the slabs are engraved: "Ś.P. / Obrońcom Ojczyzny 1918-1920 / 15 VIII 1989". " Adam Pacenko / b.1902 / fell from the hands / of fascism / 15.VII.1944" In front of the gate leading to the shrine the inscription "To the Defenders of the Fatherland" was carved in concrete. In June/July 2022, with the acquiescence of the Belarusian authorities, supportive of Russia's aggression against Ukraine (which began on 24 February 2022) and hostile to countries supporting Ukraine in its struggle for independence, this grave was destroyed: unknown perpetrators pushed away the gravestones and dug up the corpses from the mass grave. They left the slab commemorating the soldiers killed in 1920 pushed away and took Pacenko's slab to an unknown location.
