The skeletons of three Catholic nuns working as nurses murdered by Soviet soldiers at the end of the Second World War have been discovered. Their forces attempted to seize control by subduing militia as well as religious figures by looting and destroying churches. Records discovered from 1945 showed Soviet soldiers killed seven nuns in the order of St. Catherine of Alexandria who were serving as nurses at Marian Hospital in Olsztyn. In October they found Sister Generosa (Maria Bolz), Sister Krzysztofora (Marta Klomfass) and Sister Liberia (Maria Domnik) in Orneta. Where they served, they died there as well - defending themselves against the disgrace of the Red Army soldiers who entered Olsztyn in the winter of 1945.
