Saint Roch Cemetery in Częstochowa, Historical cemetery in Częstochowa, Poland.

Saint Roch Cemetery features a network of 90 irregular graves arranged in rows, with mature trees including thujas, oaks, maples, and linden trees.

The cemetery was established in 1641 by Pauline Fathers provincial superior Andrzej Gołdonowski to provide burial grounds for epidemic victims and pilgrims.

The cemetery complex includes three distinct sections: a Roman Catholic graveyard, an Evangelical-Augsburg section added in 1862, and an Orthodox military graveyard from 1898.

The cemetery is located at the intersection of Saint Roch Street and Saint Jadwiga Street in the western part of Częstochowa.

The original Chapel of Saint Roch, built in 1641, was destroyed during the Swedish siege of Jasna Góra Monastery in 1653 and replaced in 1680.
