18. Infantry Regiment of the 6. Infantry Division was stationed there in the first half of 1942. According to sources, no less than 11 soldiers died then. They were buried in designated quarters on a local Orthodox cemetery. In 2001, thanks to the efforts of the Council for the Protection of Struggle and Martyrdom, the cemetery quarters were restored.
