Cemetery

On the crest of the Lohberg is, stretched out on a length of approx. 300 m, the former Jewish cemetery, which was put on approximately around the year 1680 and on which today still 65 gravestones are to be found. The oldest ones date back to the 1770s and 1780s, while the youngest ones date back to 1926. (Source: Wikipedia)

The Jewish cemetery was established in 1845 and occupied until 1938. 50 gravestones are preserved. In addition, there is a collective grave for the bones of the cemetery in Lauterecken, which gave way to a road project in 1974.  

Hohenems is located only a few kilometers from  Bregenz in Vorarlberg. If you leave the small town in a southerly direction, you will find the Israelite cemetery on the slope of the "Schwefelberg".

"The cemetery "An der Höhne", which is said to date back to 1767, is about 1000 m²  large and today includes 25 gravestones from 1831 to 1934, plus two plinths without gravestone. The majority of the inscriptions have been traced with black paint. Noteworthy is the image of a butterfly in numerous pediments. In 2010 a memorial plaque with the names of 41 expelled or murdered Jews from Bremervörde was placed in the cemetery. The cemetery is in a well-kept condition.

Location:

The Jewish cemetery of Waren covers an area of about 1000 square meters on Papenbergstrasse north of the city center. The site was purchased by the Jewish community from the city in 1846. Presumably, there was already a cemetery before, and the purchase only expanded the old cemetery.

"In the then Hamburg office Ritzebüttel - today part of the city of Cuxhaven - the first Jews settled around the middle of the 18th century, a few years later, about 1760 arose in the Brockeswald their Begräbnisplatz, which already had to be expanded in 1818. Around 1800 the ‚Israelitische Gemeinde zu Ritzebüttel’ was constituted, which built its own synagogue in 1815/16.

Location:
Coming from the direction of Magdeburg, one drives in the direction of the center to a fork, from which it goes half-right to the center of the village and half-left over the railroad into Wilhelm-Heilge-Strasse. From this street one turns into the second possibility to the left, into the Welsleber Str. The third street to the left is the Dorotheenstr., a dead end, at whose end - before the ramp of an overpass over the railroad - the cemetery lies.

About 30 gravestones. The cemetery is surrounded by a wall.
