The 300 sqm large cemetery is hidden in the industrial area „Im Köhl“ at the junction of „Auf der Koppel“ with Wienbachstra&szlig. The cemetery „Auf der Koppel“ was bought in 1838  by Abraham Moises. The cemetery was destroyed during the Nazi period, all gravestones are missing. Eight Gräber show a stone border.

The memorial stone at the entrance was designed by Sister Paula (= Tisa von der Schulenburg, Ursulinerin):  "To the memory of our Jüdischen Mitbürger, who became victims of the tyranny in the years 1933-1945.

Theodor Rubel was born on 19.11.1884 in Hochspeyer. 

In World War I he was in the infantry and fought in Flanders, Champagne and at Verdun.

His business, which he built up after the war, was located opposite the so-called "Brown House", where the NSDAP district leadership had its headquarters, so that it was dangerous for the population to shop there already since 1933. When he had to give up his business, he was financially faced with nothing.

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.

The Jewish cemetery on Zeppelinstrasse is the oldest Jewish cemetery in Pirmasens. It was established in 1813 and closed in 1876. Today there are 95 gravestones on 1360 square meters on a slope on 4 levels. Originally the entrance was from Gefäller Weg, where you can still see the remains of the former entrance. Today the cemetery is entered from Zeppelin Street. The cemetery gate is locked, the key to it can be borrowed from the garden and cemetery office.

In the annex of the house Abteiberg 4 the Jewish community built a prayer room. It was the residence of the community leader Joseph Cahn. With his appointment as headman in 1809, Jewish life in Gladbach began to organize. As head of the community, Cahn was responsible, among other things, for the possibility of conducting religious services. Therefore, it is obvious that shortly after his appointment he provided the congregation with the premises in his house.
