The Roman Catholic cemetery in Yavorov was probably established in the early 19th century. The oldest gravestone is an unnamed "Podolsky" cross with the date "R. 1823", a two-stage stone monument, topped with a vase covered with drapery, belonging to Henryk Kalewicz (d. 1835) and Leopoldina Kustewicz (d. 1835) may be considered as the second oldest.

This cemetery is located in the centre of the town, about 300 metres from the parish church. It is accessed by an ornate, three-bay, plastered gate, topped by a chapel, with the inscription "Deliver me from death, O Lord".

It is now out of use and therefore very neglected. Many of the monuments are broken or without inscriptions. They are easily accessible due to the lack of dense scrub and grow right out of the turf.

There is a neo-Gothic brick chapel in the cemetery, serving as the tomb of the Lyakhovichi family. In its vicinity are, among others, the tombstone of Jadwiga of Kostakowska Mudowa (d. 1937) in the form of rocks of pink stone, decorated with an inscription sheet and an applied stone cross.

Hauser also mentions unnamed burials such as a magnificent gravestone with an acroterion and a bas-relief chalice and Host, with a once crowning figure of the Virgin Mary and Child (decapitated). There is also a matzeva in this cemetery, probably from a nearby Jewish cemetery.

Documentation was made for the cemetery (280 cards, stored in the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage). Information about the cemetery published (see bibliography).
