On Saturday, 4 July 2015, we finished our exhumation works in section 45N of the Bródno cemetery in Warsaw, conducted by the team of the Division of Exhumation in the Institute of National Remembrance, under the guidance of Prof. Krzysztof Szwagrzyk.

In the course of works we found the section of prison burials of those who were executed or died in a Prague prison at the Namysłowska Street. In the burial pits the remains of six adults and one child were discovered. Three of them were killed using the „Katyń method”, i.e. by a shot in the nape of the neck.

Exhumation works in section 45N of  the Bródno cemetery in Warsaw began on 1 July 2015. Their aim was to locate the burial sites of victims of Communism who were executed, murdered or died in prisons and detention centres in Warsaw in the 1940s. The work in this field will be continued in the future.
