Jewish cemetery (Dittelsheim-Heßloch)

The Jewish cemetery in Hessloch was used already in the first half of the 18th century . The files of the municipal archives show that the Jewish community of Hessloch buried their dead here as early as 1719 . Jews from Monzernheim, who belonged to the Jewish community of Hessloch, were also buried there. The cemetery area covers 7.56 ar. 
  
Not all the gravestones that used to stand in the cemetery have been preserved, and those that have been preserved are not in their original places. After 1945, the gravestones of the cemetery were overturned "for construction reasons". Only in 1974 were overturned stones put back in place. Destroyed stones and fragments were buried in the southwest corner of the railing. The gravestones, placed in two rows, date from the 19th and 20th centuries. They are in very different state of preservation.
