The cemetery occupies 29,152 square metres and is shaped if the form of an irregular trapezoid. It contains 46 mass graves and 829 individual ones. Soldiers are buried in quarters that are assigned to their nationality and the army to which they belonged. Each grave has its original cross affixed with a plate with the fallen soldier’s name. The single graves and mass graves are connected by winding alleys and terraces. The Pustki currently house 46 mass graves and 829 single ones. There are 912 soldiers from the Austro-Hungarian army, half of them Polish, 65 soldiers from the German army and 227 men from the Russian army buried here. The initial design of the cemetery assumed that a stone monument would stand on top of the hill; however, the cemetery designer, Jan Szczepkowski, did not finish his work. It was taken up by Slovak engineer Dushan Yurkovich, who changed the concept by replacing the stone monument with a wooden ‘gontyna’ chapel in the ancient Slavic style. The chapel is considered a unique example of a cemetery building in Europe. A fire destroyed it in 1985 but the chapel was rebuilt not long ago, and today proudly rises above the beautifully restored necropolis that commemorates the fallen soldiers whose military path ended in Łużna.
