In the autumn of 1655, a Tartar horde stood in Narva. The Tatars supported King Casimir and guarded the land as much as the Yalovets Old Believers.
According to the legend, in 1660 Swedish troops attacked these lands, which, making their way deep into the region, stole farms, burned villages and cities. While the Tatars collected royal tribute from the controlled areas, the Swedes burned Yalovka and the surrounding villages. The enraged Tatars made an ambush on the road in the direction of Bandar, and Swedish troops were waiting, which went in that direction with the looted good. Tatars had an advantage, because they knew the neighborhood. And it was a remote forest. The Tatar horde did not spare anybody, made the Swedes a terrible massacre. However, the Swedes managed to dig in the most valuable things somewhere in the grove, which was later called the Swedish cemetery. In this place and the truth there are three Swedish graves. One can be seen and now, others were excavated - the inhabitants of the surrounding villages were looking for treasures. There is modest information that in 1939, just before the Second World War, a treasure was found in a grove somewhere near the village of Bagnyuk. The details of this event are lost in time, and different people talk about it in different ways. One thing is true, that in this place the souls of the fallen Swedish soldiers roam, groans, neighing of kones and feedback from falling bodies are heard. Evening people sometimes try to pass this place, even if it is necessary to go a long way. Archival materials speak about this story, but the events described are only partially confirmed.
