Wola Duchacka Cemetery

Wola Duchacka Cemetery, at ulica Wspólna 1 in Podgórze Duchackie, is an active Catholic necropolis. It was established in 1922 for the parish of the Resurrection of the Lord, which covered Łagiewniki and Wola Duchacka.

History and management

The cemetery was founded as a parish one, and the parish is run by the Resurrectionist priests. To this day it is managed by the parish of the Resurrection of the Lord. The grounds are divided into 14 sections.

War graves
