Historical overview
The exact period of the cemetery’s establishment is unknown. Given it first appears on old maps of the region from the 19th century, it can be inferred it was founded in that era. The cemetery was demolished in the 1920s during Soviet collectivisation and the site was built over. Today, no visible traces of the cemetery or its boundaries remain.
