In 1922, the cemetery on Wassenbergstrasse was fully occupied, the following burials took place on the new burial ground. It is located in the municipal cemetery on Mühlenweg.

Füfor the last dead in this cemetery, no more gravestones were allowed to be erected. Henriette Levi and Eugen Mehler killed themselves to avoid being deported to a concentration camp. Since 1988, a memorial stone commemorates these two dead. 

The first Jüdische cemetery in the city of Emmerich was established in 1629 in the west of the city on the Rhine between the city wall and the moat. This cemetery was used for almost 200 years.

In 1825, the city forced the Jüdische community to abandon the cemetery because the area was needed to expand the harbor. The bones were exhumed in 1825 and moved together with the associated gravestones to the new cemetery on Wassenbergstrasse.

The exact location of the old cemetery can only be approximated. Probably it was located under the present customs office.

The community later included up to 50 people.  The cemetery was closed in 1938 by the Nazis, the memorial stones obstructed or removed, the site leveled and partially sold. In 1953, with the four remaining gravestones, this memorial was erected to commemorate the injustice of National Socialism and to remember the Jewish fellow citizens
