The newest of the three Pirmasens Jewish cemeteries is part of the municipal forest cemetery. In four rows so far 64 gravestones lie in the grave field 6, the shortest accessible über the entrance pavilion. This Jewish cemetery was established in 1927 and is still occupied today. Some graves are ornate, but most of the stones are in a simple triangular shape, which were set before the Nazi era and even after the war. Where this shape of gravestones comes from is unclear.

The Jewish cemetery on Ottostra&szlig is part of the city's Old Cemetery. The Jewish part was established in 1878, when the Jewish community in Pirmasens had grown strongly and the space in the cemetery in Zeppelinstraße was no longer sufficient. Burials took place until the cemetery was closed in 1927 and again in 1933. The original 150 or so graves, some of them very ornate, were almost completely destroyed during the Nazi regime and a pond and a fire shed were built on the grounds. After the war, 17 rescued gravestones could be reinstalled in a row along the cemetery wall.
