Also known as the Polish Military Memorial and the Cemetery of the Defenders of Lwow, this burial ground lies near Lychakiv Cemetery in Lviv, in the Pohulianka area. The plot, a former farmstead of the Armenian Benedictine nuns, was donated by Gertruda Ochanowicz, sister of the Armenian Catholic archbishop Josyf Teodorowicz. The young fighters known as the Lviv Eaglets who fell in the battles for the city were buried here.
