The Jüdische cemetery Rimbeck was created in 1875, but probably already occupied since 1870 and then used until 1933.

On the approximately 1,300 m² large cemetery have been buried 65 Jews, including the journalist Felix Fechenbach. Most of the graves date from around 1900, and there is no information about the number of preserved gravestones.

Today it is a monument.

Immediately after moving to Wankheim in 1776, four to five Jewish families leased a site outside the village. The site was and is located on the boundary of the district near today's B28 in the area "Schinderklinge". The name indicates that slaughterhouse waste had previously been disposed of there.

The annual rent was three gulden plus for each adult burial two gulden and each child under 14 years one gulden. Only after protracted negotiations could the site be acquired by the Jewish community on March 7,1845, in return for a payment of 200 gulden.

Sofie Potzernheim was born in Fürstenberg on May 4, 1889. In the address book of Berlin she appears for the first time in 1921. She earned her living as a saleswoman. Sofie Potzernheim stayed until shortly before her deportation at Berliner Straße 58. Her last address was today's Mehringdamm 86 in the district of Kreuzberg, at that time Belle-Alliance-Straße 30. On August 15, 1942 Sofie Potzernheim was deported to Riga. Probably Sofie Potzernheim was shot in the forest of Rumbula right after her arrival in the vicinity of Riga.
