Jewish cemetery Halberstadt "Am Berge" (1696? / 1844)
The cemetery „Am Berge“ is the second, which was established by the Jüdische Gemeinde - immediately north of the cemetery "Am Roten Strumpf". Both are separated only by the access road to the Catholic cemetery. When this second area behind the houses Am Berge 5-9 was leased or acquired for the first time is disputed: 1696 (when with the extension of the old cemetery already the property "Am Berge" was added?) or actually only 1844 (as already described by the community historian Auerbach in 1866).
Old Jewish cemetery Halberstadt "Am Roten Strumpf" (1644)
The cemetery "Am Roten Strumpf" is the oldest of three burial grounds of the Jewish community of Halberstadt. In 1644, still under episcopal protection, it could be established southwest of the Johannistor (at today's intersection Sternstraße / Westendorf). Before that, the dead had to be buried elsewhere (in Derenburg and Aschersleben?). The small, square area had been leased from the St. Johannis monastery. The name of the field refers to an earlier execution site. According to this, the executioner put on a red stocking to avoid being recognized.

Old Jewish Cemetery Lublin - Stary Cmentarz Żydowski w Lublinie
At present, the old Jewish cemetery in ul.Kalinowszczyzna covers an area of about 1 hectare. Of the 3,000 gravestones, which were densely arranged over the entire area of the hill, only about 60 have survived to this day. However, there are still many gravestones of people who were particularly meritorious for the Jewish community in Lublin. The Matzewa of the learned Talmudist Jaakov Kopelman, who died in 1541, is the oldest Jewish tombstone in Poland and stands in its original place.
Jewish cemetery Guben
Jewish cemetery Oranienburg
Evolution:
On Jan. 13, 1718, Joseph Meyer applied for a Jewish cemetery in Oranienburg, which was rejected because there were only two Jewish families in Oranienburg and they could be buried in Briesethal and Berlin. The Jewish population increased and Frederick William III issued an edict in 1812 making Jews citizens (not full equality). In the same year another application for the cemetery was successful. On 16.03.1815 the first burial took place of Jakob David Wolff, who died of convulsions at the age of 20 months.
