Catholic cemetery with Polish grave monuments. Information about the cemetery has been published (see bibliography). According to Lewkowski and Walczak, the cemetery has a rectangular plan and an area of approximately 800 m². It was created in the first half of the 19th century. The oldest gravestone commemorates Józef Filipowicz. It has the form of an imposing brick obelisk. The inscription reads: "JÓZEFOWI / FILIPOWICZOWI / WUJOWI / DOBRODZIEJOWI / POMNIK".
