Cemetery

Quite centrally located in downtown Livani is the Jewish cemetery. Part of the area was uncovered and built on by a local citizen. A residential building now stands there. The cemetery is used by teenagers and young adults again and again as a barbecue area and place to party, so it is regularly vandalized (gravestones are knocked over and used as places to sit or barbecue).

The Jewish cemetery Reckendorf is located in a community in the Upper Franconian district of Bamberg and was built in 1798. It is located west of Reckendorf on a forest slope and can be reached via the chapel path branching off from the Lourdes Chapel on the main road.

The Jewish cemetery Autenhausen is located in a district of the town Seßlach in the Upper Franconian county Coburg. The cemetery was established in 1839 southeast of the village. In the beginning it also served as a burial place for the Jewish community in nearby Coburg. It was occupied until 1920. The rectangular complex with almost 100 graves is bordered by a perimeter wall and is now a listed building.

Text of the plaque: The cemetery existed already in the first half of the 18th century, in 1775 the ownership was confirmed by the magistrate. In 1789 the cemetery was extended. It covered an area of 925 square meters. Forty-eight gravestones in six recognizable rows have been preserved. Today the cemetery is under the jurisdiction of the Jewish Community of Dresden. The gravestones are oriented to the east. There are men's gravestones and women's gravestones in the cemetery, including children's and double gravestones.

The Jewish cemetery in the Weißensee district is one of the largest in Europe, with over 115,000 graves. Its "architecturally remarkable" mourning hall was inaugurated in 1880. Numerous Berlin personalities such as the Hebrew writer Micha Josef Bin Gorion (1865-1921) or the painter Lesser Ury (1861-1931) are buried in the approximately 42-hectare cemetery. The layout of the cemetery goes back to the design of the architect Hugo Licht (1841-1923).

From the road "Sülzbach" leads over a (mostly open) barrier an initially asphalted path into the forest. After about 400 meters is then on the left hand the cemetery secured by a fence with its approximately 60 graves on the slope under high trees. The gravestones are mostly heavily weathered.
