It was leveled during the National Socialist era.
Today there is only a memorial stone on the site.

At the end of the 18th century, Jewish reformers began to criticize the low level of schooling and the lack of teaching methods in Jewish education, which mostly took place in the private homes of the prayer leaders and shepherds. In order to raise the educational level of the Jewish population, new educational models developed in the  transition from the 18th and 19th centuries, which led to the establishment of Jewish elementary schools and the expansion of the canon of subjects, including in Walldorf.

To the old or first Jüdischen Begr bnisplatz in Bernburg is little überliefert. It lies at Kaiplatz next to the Kurhaus Bernburg on a green strip in front of a building used today (2022) as retirement home. Nothing points to this first Jewish cemetery. No gravestones have survived. - It was initially located outside the city walls and was used until 1826. In 1826 the new Jewish cemetery was inaugurated on the hill. At the end of the 19th century, the town of Bernburg planned to become a spa and health resort, which included a spa hotel (today a retirement home).
