Cemetery

At the beginning of the 19th century, there were still no Jews living in Swinoujscie. It was not until 1816 that two merchants settled here, who soon founded large and widely ramified families. They were Fürchtegott Isenthal and Jakob Benjamin Ehrlich. Two years later, the third merchant, Joseph Jacob Jacoby, joined them. Later, the Riegel, Kantorowicz and Stargarder families followed. Over the years, most of these families were related by blood or marriage.  The number of Jews increased very slowly. In 1925, the town was home to 128 Jewish citizens.

The New Jewish Cemetery Lovosice was built between 1871 and 1872. It is located in the western part of the town of Lovosice as part of the municipal cemetery in TeplickáStreet. In 1938, it was destroyed by the fascist Henlein movement. The last burial took place in 1978. In the 1980s, the gravestones were removed by local ČSFR bodies. Only 5 gravestones remain in the northern part of the cemetery. The remains of the old 17th-century Jewish cemetery were removed by the communist ČSSR regime in the 1950s.

The New Jüdische Friedhof Údlice is located on the northern edge of the village of Eidlitz/Údlice. It was founded in 1864, not long after the old Jewish cemetery was closed. The cemetery area has a total area of 2,634 square meters. Today, only around 16 gravestones have been preserved.

The Jewish cemetery was destroyed in 1938 under the Henlein movement and during the Second World War under the German Nazi regime. Some of the cemetery's gravestones were cut up and used as paving stones in Prague (ul. Na príkopě).

The Jewish cemetery in Třebívlicích was established around 1867. Covering a total area of 665 square meters, there are around one hundred gravestones, most of which are damaged. It was occupied until the 1930s, although the local Jewish community founded in 1857 was dissolved in 1924 due to a sharp decline in membership. The last burial is said to have taken place in 1941 (although this information is not entirely certain).

The Jewish cemetery in Tschischkowitz / Čížkovice is located about one kilometer northwest of the village of Čížkovice in the district of Leitmeritz in the middle of fields. It was founded in 1800 and the oldest preserved gravestone dates back to 1839. There are around three gravestones or their remains on the total area of 539 square meters. Until the beginning of the 20th century, burials took place here and Jews from a wide area were buried here, including Jews from the religious community in Milesov or Jewish soldiers from the military garrison in Theresienstadt.

The Jewish cemetery is located on the section of Rabbethestra e between Hubeweg and Mägdebrink.

The cemetery was used from 1832 to 1920. 110 gravestones have been preserved.

The gravestones, which had already been taken to a granite factory under National Socialist rule, were brought back and put back in their original place, allowing the Jewish cemetery to be restored to its original state in the 1950s.

The cemetery from 1717 on the Schwälkenberg in the north of Schwerin's old town, in the Werdervorstadt on the street 'Am Heidensee, has been cut through by Bornhövedstraße since the early 1950s. At that time, only a third of the southern part with its funeral hall was occupied.

Cemetery for forced laborers, prisoners of war and concentration camp prisoners of the Reichswerke ‚Hermann Göring‘ who perished under inhumane working and living conditions.

The construction of a central ‚Ausländerfriedhof‘ began in the early summer of 1943. The Reichswerke „Hermann-Göring“ made the land with the old field name 'Jammertal' available for this purpose. The area was a small hill in the otherwise flat landscape, as the unusable earth accumulated during the construction work of the Reichswerke ‚Hermann Göring‘ had been dumped there.

The Jewish cemetery with 52 graves on an area of 1245 square meters is located somewhat hidden in the Dühlholz to the east of the town. The cemetery in Sachsenhagen has existed at its present location since the middle of the 18th century. There is evidence of Jews in Sachsenhagen since the beginning of the 17th century. The Jews from the neighboring village of Bergkirchen (Schumburg-Lippe) also belonged to the community. In 1823, the Jewish community of Sachsenhagen consisted of 16 men, eleven women and 20 children. Sachsenhagen also had a synagogue.

Little is known about the history of the Jewish cemetery in Ermsleben. It was destroyed during the Nazi era and afterwards, demolished and built on elsewhere. It is surrounded by a wall on one side and a fence on the other. The grounds are laid to lawn. A memorial stone from the GDR era commemorates the Jews murdered during the Nazi era.

The cemetery is located at the junction of Meisdorfer Straße / Pechhüttenweg on the outskirts of the town, next to the former gasworks.
