Cemetery with Polish gravestone monuments. Information about the cemetery has been published (see bibliography).
According to Anna Lewkowska, Jacek Lewkowski and Wojciech Walczak: "On the southern edge of the village, on the western side of the Slonim - Zdzięciol road, an Orthodox cemetery is located. In the central part of the cemetery is the only Catholic tombstone, that of Sofronia Niezabytowska of Ginetta (d. 1838). The tombstone is made of brick, plastered, erected on a rectangular plan, pierced on three sides with rectangular slits. Corners framed by pilasters support a cornice with cubes in the finial of the front façade, gabled roof, covered with sheet metal, in the ridge a cast-iron cross with arms ending in knobs. In the east wall a square cast-iron plaque with the inscription: "MEMORIAL / of the unlamented wife / of SOFRONIK Z GINETTÓW / NIEZABYTOWSKA / DEATH R. 1838 Mca / AUGUST 23 / SURRENDERED by her husband".
