The cemetery of Rumunki

The cemetery of Rumunki is located on a very sandy open plain in the surrounding wood. It can be reached using a country lane. Today the cemetery is right beside the south-east end of an artificial lake. The cemetery is easily to recognize as a group of very old oak trees. Only at the border of the cemetery some old trees have been cut off some time ago. There are no signs of graves anymore. But still the ground between the old oak trees is covered by Lilly of the valley. At the south-east corner of the cemetery a decorated small chest with a figure of virgin Mary is hanging on one of the oak trees. Elements of grave decoration lying around at the place show, that the cemetery and the chest with the figure are still visited.
