Jewish cemetery Süchteln

In 1749 the Jewish cemetery was established on the Heidweg. It replaced an older cemetery, which can no longer be located today. Originally, the cemetery grounds were surrounded by a rampart. However, this was destroyed during a cemetery desecration in 1769.

The last burial took place here in 1931. There were also several desecrations of the burial ground during the National Socialist rule.

Today, six gravestones are still preserved. In 1955, the cemetery was redesigned and all gravesites older than 30 years were leveled. In 1961 a new access road was built. The burial ground is still freely accessible today.
