This pair of headstones, located approximately 5 meters south of the porch of the Church of Holy Trinity, dates from the late 17th century and is made of limestone. Each headstone features an oval plaque framed with scrolls, topped with a medallion and cherubs that support draperies. At the base of the plaques, there is a skull with bat wings, flanked by cherub heads. Unfortunately, no inscriptions remain on the headstones.
