In the Russian cemetery in Chernivtsi stripped destroyed tomb of Dr. Basil
Volyana (Basil Wolan) (1832-1899), founder and first chief physician
Bukovynian regional hospital, the first deputy of Bukovynian Seimas, and
later the Austrian Parliament. His tomb was a landmark in local history,
built on powerful monolithic stone blocks, but it did not protect it from
vandalism and idiotyzmu (Translation )
