Here rests in God our heart-loved father and grandfather, the merchant Max Wermuth from Lieberose. b. 20 Decbr. 1860 d. 24 Octbr. 1912 Rest gently. You were charitable and modest, your life was weighed down by pain. Carried with patience your heavy suffering. Now it rests gently, your good heart.

The dead of the Jewish community of Fürstenberg were buried in the Jewish cemetery in Friedland before 1840. A separate cemetery was built in 1840 far outside the city and used until 1890, of which nothing remains. From 1890 burials were made in the newly built cemetery until 1939 when its use was terminated. The cemetery was desecrated during the Nazi period, from the original 25 stones only 15 are left. In 1993 there was another desecration, 11 stones were overturned. To protect the cemetery since then not freely accessible.

The Jewish cemetery Potsdam in the Puschkinallee 18 was created in 1743 on today's Pfingstberg. The oldest and at the same time only grave from the founding year of the cemetery belongs to Mrs. Edel, who died on 24.02.1743.

Jews settled in East Frisia since the beginning of the 16th century. In this time there was already a Jewish community in Norden. In 1569 the first cemetery was leased. It was the first cemetery in East Frisia. Also the Jews from Emden and Aurich buried their dead zunächst here.

The first synagogue was built in 1804 and rebuilt in 1903. A mikvah was attached to it. Next door was the school building and a house with administrative rooms.The synagogue was burned down in 1938.

The island of Norderney belonged to the synagogue community of Norden.

In 1880, the cemetery on the East Glacis was purchased. Burials took place from 1881 to 1983.

The cemetery is surrounded by a wall, today there are still about 170 stones on the area. This cemetery was considerably devastated between 1933 and 1945 and gradually restored in recent decades.

In contrast to the "old" cemetery at the Esplanade, the gravestones look rather uniform, almost unadorned and unprosaic. There are many lying gravestones.

The plot on the Esplanade was purchased by the Jewish community towards the end of the 17th century. Presumably, there has been a Jewish cemetery elsewhere before.

The oldest gravestone dates from 1732.

In the second half of the 19th century a synagogue was built, also the small cemetery was probably created around this time.

The medieval Jewish community in Bingen did not yet have its own cemetery. Like the Rheingau Jews, the Bingeners brought their deceased to the cemetery in Mainz.     
   

Since the middle of the 19th century, the cemetery existed.

Coming from Konz, turn right from Saarburgerstr. (B 61) into Reinigerstraße. Immediately after house No. 5, between the house and a garden, a footpath branches off to the left. After about 20 m to the right the (locked) cemetery gate, through which the cemetery can be overlooked.

There are 15 graves in the cemetery, which was established after 1850 and used until 1936.

The cemetery looks well kept.
