The Jews first used a cemetery at the Molenstraat. This cemetery  was demolished in 1947 and replaced by the cemetery on the Kneedweg. When the Kneedweg was full, the cemetery at the Noord Esmarkerrondweg was put into use. In addition, there is still a cemetery at the Hengelosestraat.

In 1831 a plot of land was purchased and the cemetery was established. Today there are still 26 gravestones in the cemetery. The last burial took place in 1937

The cemetery was established in 1617 between Zeckendorf and Demmelsdorf. Until the middle of the 17th century, the dead from Bamberg and from many surrounding villages were also buried here.

The cemetery has been damaged several times in recent years and significantly destroyed.  Today, about 600 gravestones are still preserved. It is located about 1 km östlich of Zeckendorf and is difficult to find. The key you get at the municipal administration.

Here was located until 1939 the Büro of the youth movement Hashomer Hatzair Germany (in German: Haschomer Hatzair, HHD). This information was revealed by the reestablished youth association as part of the history project in 2022 to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the reestablishment.
