The cemetery existed at the beginning of the 18th century and was destroyed by Nazis. The gravestones were removed. In 1945, some of the stones were returned and the cemetery partly reconstructed. Today, the cemetery is not enclosed. Some simple Baroque and Classicist gravestones remain. [August 2009] |
