A monument listing around 200 Red Army soldiers who died of their wounds or from disease stands at the gates of this cemetery, on one side of which there is a separate burial ground. Similarly to the first monument, the soldiers and officers buried there died in Red Army hospitals. In addition, soldiers and officers of the Soviet Army who died after the war were also buried in the cemetery.
