Graves of Polish Army soldiers killed in the Polish-Bolshevik war

The cemetery contains the grave of Czeslaw Prewysz-Kwinto, who died in 1919. The inscription reads: "Ś. † P. / Czesław / Prewysz-Kwinto / volunteer of the 13th Uhlan Regiment / of Vilnius / died in Łohojsk on 20 December 1919 / born 4 I 1897 / in Kimborciszek. / born on 4 I 1897 / in Kimborciszki". It is not known what the cause of his death was - perhaps he lost his life as a result of wounds or diseases acquired during the fighting. The grave was renovated in 2022 by the Foundation in Aid to Poles in the East as part of a task co-financed by the programme of the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage "Sites of National Remembrance Abroad". Near this grave were buried 12 Polish legionaries killed in the battles for Vilnius in 1919-1920. These graves have not been preserved.
