The cemetery, founded at the beginning of the twentieth century, functioned up to the year 1946. It was the burial site for deceased members of the Warmia Cathedral Chapter, established in the mid-thirteenth century by Anselm, the first bishop of Warmia. In the 1911-1946 period the cemetery witnessed 23 burials, and up to this day preserved 20 monuments executed from various material: stone, iron, and wood. The appearance of the cemetery is supplemented by a monumental sculpture depicting the Crucifixion, a copy of a well-known work by Tilemann Niemenschneider, master of Wurzburg, and executed by Stein, a sculptor from Freiburg.
