Parish cemetery in Boguszyce

Evangelical Cemetery

The original and oldest part of the necropolis is located directly around the parish church. This entire architectural complex — the church together with the surrounding cemetery — is entered in the official register of historic monuments.

Evangelical past: before the Second World War, Boguszyce, then known as Bogschütz, was inhabited predominantly by Protestants. The cemetery still preserves some traces of burials from that period, including the historic gravestone of Pastor Carl Wilhelm Leehr.
