Jewish cemetery Wusterhausen/Dosse

The Jewish cemetery in Wusterhausen/Dosse, located directly on Klempowsee, was completely destroyed and made unrecognizable by overbuilding [GPS: 52.900425, 12.459218]. However, the cadastral documents show that the plot formed an approximate rectangle with an east-west orientation.

The site was probably enclosed by a fence or wall. However, the direction and arrangement of the gravestones is just as unknown as their number and the number of burials carried out.

The recovered fragments are made of sandstone and limestone, a common material for gravestones at the time.

And yet, immediately after the liberation of Frankfurt in spring 1945, Jewish life in Ostend made a cautious, albeit fragile, new start.
