During the Second World War, Poles who had been deported by the Soviet authorities from, among others, the village of Sekły in the Braslav region of the Vilnius voivodeship, were forcibly settled here. The deportees died of disease and harsh living conditions. Among those buried in the local cemetery were Serwacy Lisowski and Franciszek Morawski.
In 1978, Czesław Lisowski surrounded his brother Serwacy's grave with an iron fence, but by then the cemetery was already deserted and overgrown.
