The first Jüdische cemetery in the city of Emmerich was established in 1629 in the west of the city on the Rhine between the city wall and the moat. This cemetery was used for almost 200 years.

In 1825, the city forced the Jüdische community to abandon the cemetery because the area was needed to expand the harbor. The bones were exhumed in 1825 and moved together with the associated gravestones to the new cemetery on Wassenbergstrasse.

The exact location of the old cemetery can only be approximated. Probably it was located under the present customs office.

The old Jewish cemetery of Eisleben was used from the beginning of the 19th century until 1877. The cemetery was destroyed and abused. It was not until 2008 that an attempt was made to restore the cemetery.

In 2014, the class 9 with the assistance of Mr. Rüdiger Seideldes Martin Luther Gymnasium meticulously documented the Jewish cemetery of Eisleben with scientific standards. A document worth reading!

The Jewish cemetery of Elsdorf is located at the large sugar factory. The cemetery was acquired in 1847. The oldest stone dates from 1791, the site was already used as a cemetery before the acquisition. Today there are about 80 graves. Graves were moved here, which had to give way to the open pit coal mining. A stone commemorates Russian forced laborers who were killed by bombs. A surviving Jew had a memorial stone erected.

If the open-cast lignite mine in Hambacher Forst is expanded as planned, this cemetery will soon no longer exist.
