In the past, the Jews of Iserlohn were not allowed to bury their dead within the city fortifications. The burials therefore took place in front of the city wall on a spoil site near Dicken Turm . In 1743 a building was to be erected there. The cemetery therefore had to be abandoned. A new walled cemetery was established at the pit Gröfeken on the Dördel.[1]

This cemetery was occupied in the 19th and 20th centuries. It was destroyed in 1938, during the Nazi period, and restored after World War II.

Since February 10, 2005, it has been protected as a historical monument protected.
