New cemetery Bergen Enkheim

Complete profile
60

Since the old cemetery in Bergen was completely occupied, the new Jewish cemetery on Vilbeler Landstraße was established in 1925 after long discussions in the community parliament. This was used until the end of the Jewish community Bergen-Enkheim in 1942.
. Another source states that the cemetery was occupied from 1925 until at least 1936.

From this time there are still about ten gravestones.

Old cemetery Bergen-Enkheim

Bergen and Enkheim have become Frankfurt's easternmost district as a result of municipal reforms.

Around 1330, the first Jews in Bergen can be traced. Even before the Thirty Years' War there was a synagogue, which was destroyed several times and replaced by a larger building in the 19th century.

In the center of Bergen from the second half of the 17th century was the Jewish cemetery, which was replaced by the new cemetery around 1920.
