Restoration and inventory of the resting places of the murdered in the Naliboki Forest in Belarus

Puszcza Nalibocka | Belarus

Information about the object:
Tombstones of victims of partisan warfare and German pacification, as well as civilian inhabitants of the Naliboki Forest murdered during the Second World War.

Completed works:
The main objective of the project was to renovate monuments, as well as to commemorate unmarked burial sites of civilians - a tombstone in the old cemetery in Ruda Nalibocka was restored and a cross was erected on an unmarked grave in the settlement of Kowaliowa.

In accordance with the project's assumptions, search works were also carried out, resulting in further verification of information on the graves located in the Nalibotska Forest.

The work culminated in a documentation study, drawing up inventory cards and plotting the new locations on a topographic map
