Today the cemetery area is arable land. No traces of the cemetery have been preserved and no tombstones were found. The territory appears to be a private agricultural territory today, so fencing could be complicated.
Number of existing gravestones
No preserved tombstones were found by the survey team, however there are a few photos on sztetl.org.pl showing four large fragments of the tombstones and a few smaller ones. The location of these is unknown.
