Due to the fact that such a distinguished man as Adolf Sawicki, the MP and mayor of Korycin murdered by the Soviets, came from nearby Wyłudki, one of the residents (a relative of Adolf Sawicki) decided to erect a monument on his family land called the "Golgotha of the East", commemorating all the victims of the criminal Stalinist system. . The monument is located on the hill of St. Isidore near the village of Wyłudy was consecrated in 2015 by Fr. Bishop Henryk Ciereszko. It is a monumental stone building topped with a statue of the Risen Christ and sculptures of Our Lady and angels on the sides. In addition to the stone dedicated to Sawicki, there is a boulder commemorating the famous mathematician Józef Marcinkiewicz from the nearby village of Cimoszka, commune. Janów. Getting to Golgotha of the East from Suchowola is interesting because there are a lot of old chapels and crosses along the way. Much less from the Korycin side. Accessible by virtually any bike.
