The cemetery was arranged around the year 1838 for the villages of Grčarice, Grčarska Ravnica, Jelendol, and Glažuta. After 1966, the gravestones of the Kočevski Germans were removed. On the cemetery there are two graves, among which fell partisan fighters. Besides the main stone, there are still two medium-sized memorial stones at the lower part, which were transferred from separate graves in the immediate vicinity, and above them two smaller stones, besides which are black and white photographs of the fallen partisans in oval frames. The memorial was unveiled on 4 July 1959 and was later renovated. Besides this grave is a separate grave of a former fighter of the XIV. division.

For the mentioned graves, the ZKGP (Združeno kmetijsko gozdarsko podjetje iz Kočevja) once took care.
