The structure of Shcherbinka
From the first moment of the cemetery’s work, all the necessary records are kept. Asphalted alleys, which make it possible to approach each grave, visually divide the cemetery. Shcherbinka has an excellent drainage system that eliminates flooding. Each part, both Central and South, is surrounded by a metal fence along the border. There is a modern churchyard in the forest. In addition, there are 56
water columns, 175 cranes, 43 rubbish bins and, importantly, given the remoteness of the location, equipment rental points that make it possible to care for the graves throughout the territory. Now the Shcherbinka cemetery, or rather the Buddhist section of the southern part, has a columbarium designed for 1,500 urns. There is a morgue and crematorium. Of course, on the territory of this place of eternal rest there is the
temple chapel of the Life-Giving or
Old Testament Trinity belonging to the Zakharya
Church . All the necessary ceremonies are held here. In the very near future, a mosque should appear in the village of Shcherbinka, after which the cemetery is named, which will make the Muslim burial rite complete.
