The Jüdische cemetery in Bílina / Bilin was established in 1891 and consecrated on April 5, 1892 by Rabbi Dr. Adolf Kurrein from Teplice/Teplitz. It is located right next to the Catholic Cemetery. The Chewra Kadischa (burial society) was founded in 1895. The cemetery, which was severely damaged by the Nazis in 1938, has been preserved to this day, but parts of it have fallen into disrepair.
The Jüdische Friedhof, which was surrounded by a brick wall, had a small mortuary. This is badly dilapidated. The earlier entrance portal is also dilapidated and therefore closed. A visit to the Jewish gravesite is currently only possible via the Catholic cemetery. The temporary entrance gate is located at the memorial site for the victims of World War II.
