Jewish cemetery Hülchrath
Former synagogue Hemmerden
Already in 1787 there was a prayer hall in Mauristra;e. In 1859 the synagogue was consecrated here. In 1938 the interior of the synagogue was damaged and destroyed during the November pogrom. Since there was a gasoline depot near the building, the synagogue was not set on fire. Non-Jewish residents feared for the safety of their own homes. After the pogrom, the synagogue was taken out of the possession of the Jewish community and from 1939 was used as accommodation for Polish and Russian prisoners of war. After 1945, the building became private property and was used as a storage shed.
Jewish cemetery Hemmerden
Already before 1526 there was a Jewish cemetery in Hemmerden. The plot was donated to the community by the sovereign Elisabeth zu Salm-Dyck. When all Jewish inhabitants had to leave the village in that year, the cemetery was abandoned. The old Jewish cemetery of Hemmerden was located at the Stesser Mühle. The land was returned to the original owners in 1826. Schulte gives 1827 as the year of foundation of the new, still existing Jewish cemetery. The database Epidat as well as Pracht-Jürns mention 1813 as another possible year of foundation.
Former synagogue Wevelinghoven
In the available literature there are references to the existence of Betsälen before the 19th century. Here, however, neither a more precise chronological classification nor a localization is possible. In 1818 the synagogue was established in the rear building of Burgstraß 31. In the course of the 19th century, the number of Jewish residents in Wevelinghoven remained constant. After the anti-Jewish riots in the wake of the so-called Xanten ritual murder affair in 1892, however, some members moved to the surrounding larger towns, so that the community began to shrink.
Old Jewish cemetery Wevelinghoven
The old cemetery of the Jüdische community of Wevelinghoven, which was established before 1800, no longer exists today. Due to its central location in the town center, it had already become an obstacle in the eyes of the town administration in the middle of the 19th century. In 1864, the Jüdische Gemeinde Wevelinghoven planned to repair the dilapidated cemetery wall, which was to be supported by a grant from the city administration. When the community considered an expansion of the cemetery, the city withdrew the financial support, however.
