History

edit

The new Lutheran cemetery on Bielska Street, east of the old town was established in 1887 on the city limits of Bobrek when the Old Evangelical Cemetery at the Jesus Church became inadequate to cope with mortality rates. The cemetery is divided into 6 quarters which was divided into individual sections and plots which can be seen on an electronic map.[1] The cemetery was declared a protected object of cultural heritage on July 11, 1986.[2]
