Since 1843, the West London Synagogue owned a cemetery in Islington, but towards the end of the century it was fully occupied. Therefore one acquired 1894 in Golders Green, at that time far outside convenient and before building of the subway there 1907 still little developed, an extensive area of approx.  16,5 hectares, probably too largely for the own need, because  already before the opening of the own cemetery 1896 one sold scarcely half of the reason to the Spanish-Portuguese Sephardi congregation.

The cemetery, first mentioned in 1804, may have originated as early as the 17th or 18th century.  After 1933 - and especially in the wake of the 1938 pogroms - it was repeatedly desecrated, and in 1950-52 some gravestones were put back in place. It was not until 2006 that a group of students from the local gymnasium began a thorough restoration: stones were placed as far as possible, gravestone debris was collected, and the entire site was restored to a suitably dignified condition.

The department store (Warenhaus) on Mauritiusplatz was built in 1892 by Julius Bormass. His son Moritz Bormass became a partner in 1905 and later the managing director of Julius Bormass GmbH. The crisis period of the 1920s finally drove the company into bankruptcy in 1927. In the following compulsory settlement, Moritz Bormass stood surety with his private assets. On September 1, 1942, Moritz Bormass and his wife Sophie, née Ballin, were deported to Theresienstadt. The adverse conditions prevailing there so stressed the couple that Moritz Bormass died already on September 12, 1942.
