10 soldiers who died fighting for the liberation of the village from the Nazi invaders on September 7-10, 1943 were buried. The village was liberated on September 10, 1943. The names of all the dead are known. In 1955, the remains of the dead from different places were transferred to a mass grave, on which a reinforced concrete sculpture of a warrior was installed in the same year. In 1968, a memorial sign was erected in honor of the fallen soldiers-compatriots. In 1991, reconstruction was carried out: a memorial complex was built in honor of compatriots who died during the Second World War. On the right is a reinforced concrete sculpture of a warrior, on the left is a reinforced concrete sculpture of a woman-mother with a child. Behind the sculptures are two concrete stelae with the names of the dead. Both steles are connected by a bas-relief depicting warriors, women, children, men with hammers. In front of the stele there is a mass grave, on which there is a concrete slab with an inscription and the names of the dead. In front of the mass grave there is a plastered brick slab with a memorial inscription.
