On the sides four smaller wrought iron crosses. The cemetery fenced with chains stretched between concrete pillars. Resting place of 3 Russians and 1 Austrian. Despite a small spatial scale it implements fully compositional formula of war cemeteries as a monument of the fallen and documenting the struggles in the region.
