There was a considerable group of Jews among the refugees coming to Iran from Soviet Union. Essentially they stopped in Tehran, from where they were evacuated progressively to other centers of refugees. A part of them, both soldiers and civilians, terminated their homeless itinerary on Iranian land. They were buried in 1942-1944, not only in Polish cemetery, but also in a separate cemetery plot of Jewish community in Tehran. This cemetery still belongs to the Jewish Community. As a result of unwritten agreement between the Polish authorities of those days and the management of the cemetery, the territory separated as a burial ground enjoys the statues of a kind of “perpetual usufruct”.

Polish tombs are located on the border of Jewish Cemetery. The two rows of graves are marked with bricks; each of 56 graves, being decorated with a standard plate with David Star and inscription in Polish language, indicating the name, first name, military grade and date of birth and dead. Some of the graves are topped with plates engraved with inscriptions in Polish and Hebrew; they were founded by friends and relatives. No central plate or statue has been placed on the cemetery so far. In 2002, the Council of Protection of War and Martyrdom Remembrance plans to fix a monument in remembrance of Polish Jews buried there, upon agreement with the management of the cemetery.
