The cemetery consists of 2 blocks and is enclosed by a bar fence. In block "A" there are three rows of burials with 6 graves and in block "B" there are seven rows of burials with 19 graves. There are concrete crosses on all the graves (except the last two graves in the 7th row). There are 154 crosses in total and 19 crosses are missing.
