According to Anna Lewkowska, Jacek Lewkowski and Wojciech Walczak, the active Catholic cemetery is located in the south-western corner of Starzyna. It has a rectangular plan with a truncated northern and eastern corner, and is not divided into plots and alleys. It has an area of 0.75 hectares surrounded by a wooden fence. It was created in the early 20th century. It contains most contemporary burials. The oldest gravestone, from 1936, commemorates Mieczyslaw Lysy and has the form of a vertical slab with the inscription: "Ś. P. MIECZYSŁAW ŁYSY / LIVED 6 YEARS / DIED. 12 FEBRUARY / 1936 R. / PAM. FROM THE FAMILY". The cemetery is maintained in good condition.
