Dziekanka (Gniezno) mass graves

During the war patients from the Dziekanka asylum were murdered by the Nazis and buried in mass graves in the woods (Nowaszyce) south of Mielno about 15-20 kilometres north of Gniezno. Somewhere in that area this monument was erected in 2010 and I wonder if anyone know where it can be found.
Thank's

Thank's wm. Very interesting link and if Google translate serves me right it shouldn't be to hard to find. My plan is to visit the site this summer.

In case the page displays improperly - on the right, there is a high-resolution map with a POI pin.

No problems with the resolution. Interesting that so little is known about this grave site.
