New Jewish Cemetery Krefeld

Around 1900, the Jewish cemetery on Heideckstraße was completely occupied, so that the Jewish community acquired a plot of land for a new burial ground next to the municipal cemetery in Alte Gladbacher Straße. On this younger Jewish cemetery is buried since 1903 until today still.

Already in 1945, extensive restorations of the Jewish cemetery began. Many stolen gravestones and sculptures could be retrieved. However with many stones to this day still no data could be chiseled in again, since no data were to be procured.
