The cemetery probably exists since the end of the 17th century. The oldest gravestone dates from 1748. In the period after 1933 the cemetery was closed, the gravestones were sold. The stones made of basalt and granite were further used. Some stones were found after the war by a stonemason and were put up again. Today there are 22 stones and a memorial column in the cemetery.
