Situated in the forest near the forester's lodge Zazdrość (German: Neidhof, Zasdross), on the forest road, about 100 m east of the Olsztyn-Butryny road. Two mass graves built on rectangular plans, divided by a forest road, with high oak crosses on them: the Russian one - Orthodox, the German one - Latin. 20 soldiers of the German army (including 4 unknown from Res. Inf. R. 1) and 43 (60 according to M. Dehnen's study) soldiers of the Russian army who died on August 28, 1914 are buried here. The state of preservation is satisfactory, the layout of the graves is blurred.
