Free text that contains data valid for interpretation :
12 soldiers were laid to rest, who perished before the liberation of the village due to Nazi death rows on 13 June 1943. The names of the 8 dead were revealed. In 1962, the remains of the dead were transferred to a mass grave, on which a concrete sculpture of a warrior was installed. On the main pedestal there is a memorial inscription and the names of the liberating soldiers. In 1975, right-handedly, a concrete stele was installed near the grave, on which 7 metal memorial plaques with the nicknames of 152 fellow countrymen who died in the fate of the Other World War were fixed.
