The Cemetery:

On a slope of a hill in Plesna, in a forest, there is a cemetery from WWI. 34 Austro-Hungarian and 29 Russian soldiers are buried there. The cemetery is an irregular polygon with a scattered arrangement of graves. It's a design by Siegfried Haller. Similar to the other cemeteries designed by Haller, there is also a shrine. It's a stylized stone shrine with a shingled roof. There is a marble plaque fixed to its wall with German inscription:

Learn from us frisky grandsons
Sacrifice and duty
When at the sacred borders of fatherland
Threat of an enemy is hanging.



The Cache:

To reach the cache you don't need to climb up or dismount anything. Trees and other features might disrupt GPS signal but it shouldn't be very hard to find the container. The micro container includes a logbook and a pencil.
