The Main Communal Cemetery in Przemysl was created due to the lack of space in the so-called old cemetery. Many prominent personalities were buried here, including probably the Polish general and participant of the January Uprising - Jaroslaw Dąbrowski. The new necropolis is characterized by a variety of tombstones and high greenery, dominating the graves.
The cemetery was built in the second half of the nineteenth century. He was successively enlarged by adjoining terrains. In 1909, he was surrounded by a neo-gothic fence. A cemetery chapel was erected on its grounds, and around it were erected magnificent tombstones of the most significant figures of the nineteenth century Przemysl. The monuments preserved here are of great artistic value, and the most beautiful ones came from the chisel sculptors Lviv
Originally in place of the present cemetery, there was a so-called choleric cemetery. It is here that people who died of cholera or other infectious diseases have been found here. It is estimated that the first necropolis was founded in 1831, when the first cholera epidemic broke out.
