The section is located in the old parish cemetery. It consists of two adjoining parts: the western one on a plan of an octagon with a small annex on the western side and the eastern one on a plan of rectangle with a protrusion framed by a concrete balustrade on the entrance side. On the other sides, the fence forms a wall made of stone blocks.
The entrance is framed by two massive stone posts with an octagonal base and closed with a three-segment wrought gate with a motif of an equal arm cross, made of sheet metal, with one movable wing. On the south-western side, the war section was connected with a low wall to elements located on the main axis: a civil tomb of the Stecki family and a figure of the Virgin Mary set on a high stone plinth, located behind the tomb.
The main element of the war section is a wooden monument Latin cross placed on a stone plinth of an octagonal cross-section, tapering towards the top with four diagonal planes. In four round recesses surrounded by a wreath motif, located in the pedestal, there are cast-iron Maltese crosses with a laurel wreath motif. The annex at the western section is closed with a gabled wall section with a memorial plaque with the following inscription in German: “NICHT NUR GROSSE SOHNE/ VERLANGT DIE GROSSE ZEIT-/ AUCH GROSSE ENKEL!”. Above the plaque there is a small metal plaque with the following inscription: “TYM MIEJSCEM/ OPIEKUJE SIĘ/ SZKOŁA PODSTAWOWA/ W PALEŚNICY (THE PRIMARY SCHOOL IN PALEŚNICA TAKES CARE OF THIS SITE).” The graves are located in the eastern part, symmetrically on both sides of the alley, and in the western part, along the fence.
The tombstones have the form of:
- cast-iron Maltese crosses mounted on concrete pedestals tapering towards the top, - a cast-iron openwork Latin cross mounted on a concrete pedestal tapering towards the top,
- small concrete arcades in the fence line, with a Greek or two-barred cross in the opening (Watzal tombstones).
Forty-six soldiers of the Austro-Hungarian army and 15 soldiers of the Russian army were buried in five mass and 24 individual graves. The names of 26 buried soldiers are known.
