Cemetery in Korelicze

Korelicze | Belarus
biał. Karełiczy (Карэлічы)
Cemetery with Polish gravestone monuments. Information about the cemetery has been published (see bibliography). As Lewkowski and Walczak write, the Orthodox cemetery is located in the north-eastern part of the village. A mass grave of German soldiers from World War I can be found in the cemetery. "On the grave there is a monument - a quadrilateral brick pillar covered with stones - pebbles, the whole is crowned with a sphere and a metal, military iron cross. On one of the walls of the pillar a rectangular niche with a metal inscription plaque. The plaque is illegible. An unknown number of German soldiers rest in the grave. At the southern border of the cemetery, a contemporary monument to Nikolai Arciuch, killed in 1933 by the "Belarusian occupiers"."
