The Jewish cemetery in Obrzycko is located opposite the property at 5 Stawna Street and is probably identical to the cemetery in its historical boundaries.

It was established in 1755 after the new Jewish community had received the appropriate permission from the church. During the German occupation in the Second World War, it was completely destroyed and most of the gravestones were used to pave the streets. In the post-war period, there was an unincorporated area without gravestones that was used for dances.
