Cemetery

Leveled and part of the park on the monastery hill.

The Jewish cemetery in Fußgönheim, a local community in the Rhine-Palatinate district in Rhineland-Palatinate, was established in 1821. The Jewish cemetery is located at the junction of Ellerstadter Straße and Bahnhofstraße. It is a protected cultural monument.

Since the Old Jüdische Friedhof an der Dedestraße was closed, only this cemetery is still used by the community.

In 1814, a plot of land was purchased by the Jewish community and a cemetery was built on it.

In 1917, the Land Rabbi Dr. David Mannheimer suggested the construction of a mourning hall. Initially, the legacy of the Zwischenahn Jewess Emilie Cohn (1844-1917) was to be used for the construction. Later, community member Leo Leiser Trommer donated the hall in honor of his deceased son (Arthur Trommer). On May 1, 1921, the mourning hall was ceremonially opened.

The Jewish cemetery Wandsbeck or also  cemetery Königsreihe in Hamburg was from 1637 to 1884 in use of the Jewish community Wandsbek.

It is located on the former Lange Reihe (today Königsreihe, corner Litzowstraße) .
The tenant Colonel Bernd von Hagen provided the land on which the cemetery was built in 1634.

Like many Jewish cemeteries, this one was desecrated during the November pogrom of 1938.

Since 1960 the cemetery is under monument protection. Approximately 1,000 gravestones are still preserved, the oldest dating back to 1676.

The Judenkiewer Spandau is the oldest known burial place of the Jewish community in Berlin, it was first mentioned in a document in 1314. The name "Kiewer" is most likely related to the Hebrew and Yiddish word קבר kejwer (grave). The Spandau Jewish community developed into the most important community between Breslau and Magdeburg in the High Middle Ages. The first documentary evidence of the existence of Jews in Spandau dates back to 1307, but gravestone inscriptions make it clear that there must have been a Jewish cemetery here as early as the mid-13th century.

The new Jewish cemetery was established in 1917/18 as the present part of the main municipal cemetery. The first person buried in the cemetery was Berta Hammerschmidt, who died in early November 1916. After the old Jewish cemetery was fully occupied in 1916 and a new one was still in the planning stage, the Chief Rabbi of Cottbus, Dr. Posner, had contacted Mayor Dreifert after her death on behalf of Judicial Councilor Abraham Hammerschmidt.

The New Jewish Cemetery at Eckenheimer Landstrasse 238 was built in 1928/29 according to plans by the government architect Fritz Nathan. The austere cubic architecture follows the New Building style prevailing at the time, while at the same time reverting to classical elements such as portico, axiality, and peristyle. The only facade decoration is the wall bond of red-brown Dutch clinker.
