History
The cemetery was opened in 1911 on the outskirts of the Zakamensky district on the border of the allotment of the Ust-Inskaya village [1] .
During the Civil War, orderliness was lost at the Zakamenskoye cemetery, an adjustment of the plan and cleaning of its territory was required. The state of the necropolis was influenced by the proximity of the Military Town, which at that time was filled with unburied corpses. During the typhoid epidemic, it was to this cemetery that it was most convenient to transport carts with dead bodies [1] .
In 1923, the sites of the Orthodox, Catholic, Lutheran, Jewish and Military cemeteries were again clearly marked on the Zakamensky cemetery, and reserve lands were left for future burials [1] .
In the 1960s, the Zakamensky cemetery was destroyed [1] . Currently, in its place is a small birch grove, occupying the corner of Nikitin and Voinsky streets [2] .
