95th Anniversary of the Battle
Co-financed by the Minister of Culture and National Heritage from the Culture Promotion Fund
September 19, 2015
On September 19, 2015, at 12:00 noon, on the Dytiatyn Fields, during Mass celebrated by Bishop Marian Buczek, the first section of the War Cemetery, erected over the graves of Polish soldiers who fought against the Soviets, was officially unveiled and dedicated. Thanks to the involvement of the Franciscans, led by their parish priest, Father Grzegorz Cymbała from the nearby monastery in Bołszowce, and the great dedication of Ms. Wiesława Holik to saving the heroes of this land from oblivion, and with the financial support of the Council for the Protection of Memory of Combat and Martyrdom, the destroyed memorial site was partially rebuilt.
The ceremony was attended by representatives of the President and the Government of the Republic of Poland, Members of Parliament and Senators, representatives of the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage, the Polish Army Guard of Honour, delegations of the Fire Departments and representatives of the authorities and local governments from Ukraine, Roman Catholic, Greek Catholic and Orthodox clergy, military chaplains, borderland organisations and patriotic movements, students, scouts and many other people from Poland and Ukraine.
The inhabitants of Dytiatyn, as always, welcomed the arriving guests with kindness and, together with their parish priest, also took part in the celebrations.
After the Mass, wreaths and bouquets of flowers were laid under the tombstones with a cross.
