A cemetery is said to have existed in Zell from 1800 to 1860. However, neither the date nor the existence are considered certain, since they are based exclusively on stories told by locals. The area on a western slope to the left of the road from Unterzell to Margetshöchheim serves today as a clover field, no traces of the (alleged) cemetery have survived.

There are 30 Jewish concentration camp victims, victims of a "death march" during the evacuation of the concentration camps in the last weeks of the war, buried in row and individual graves in the municipal cemetery on Egerstraße. However, the cemetery also contains the grave of former "Führer" deputy and leading Nazi Rudolf Hess, which is why the site has become a neo-Nazi cult site since 1987, especially on the anniversary of his death in August.
