The active village Catholic cemetery was established in the 1st half of the 19th century and is located approximately 400m south of the village boundary. The rectangular-plan cemetery, located on a flat area, covers an area of 01, ha and is enclosed by a wooden fence, with an entrance from the north. There is no division into alleys and plots, the graves are distributed freely throughout the cemetery. One can notice a process of eradication of old burials in favour of new ones. Of the old gravestones, only two burials remain, located in the south-eastern corner of the cemetery. Both are in the form of granite vertical slabs. The first dates from 1826 and is dedicated to Ludwik and Rozalia Iwaszkiewicz, and the second from 1833 to Józef Iwaszkiewicz. On both graves the following inscription has been preserved: S. P. JOZEF / IWASZKIEWICZ / ZM. 6 NOVO. 1876 г. / AT 72 YEARS OF AGE / A STRESSED WOMAN WITH CHILDREN / APPEALS FOR HEAVEN TO GOD/./ LUDWIK AND ROZALIA/ IWASZKIEWICZS/ THE STRESSED SON JÓZEF / THAT SURPRISE SURRENDER/ DIED. 1833 R. 12 / JULY THE AGE OF 100 / AND UM. R. 1826/.
. Information about the cemetery has been published (see bibliography).
