Alemannia Judaica

There was a continuous settlement again since the 18th century. The Jewish families who moved in at that time had initially buried their deceased in the Jewish cemetery in Burgkunstadt. In 1787 an own Jewish cemetery could be established in Bayreuth. The cemetery was expanded several times in the following decades. The large, three-nave cemetery hall is still preserved today. A massive stone wall surrounds the cemetery. To the right of the entrance gate there is an old well. There are three graves sections. To the left of the entrance there are old, very ornate gravestones.

The Old Jüdische Cemetery is one of two surviving burial sites of the Jewish Community in Nürnberg. The cemetery was occupied from 1864 to 1922.

A medieval cemetery was originally located west of the city, since its expansion in 1437 within the walls, on today's street Am Jägersbrunnen. Also foreign Jews were buried here. Almost no traces of the medieval cemetery have survived. A gravestone found at the beginning of the 20th century, which was in the possession of the Jewish community, dated March 31, 1446, is in the Central Archives Jerusalem.
   

The cemetery was established in the middle of the 18th century. It was the central burial place for the Jewish communities in Alsfeld, Romrod, Leusel (here only individual families belonging to Angenrod), Ober-Gleen and Grebenau, until these communities partly established their own cemeteries. The entrance gate was rebuilt in 1897 due to a foundation. During the Nazi period the cemetery was reduced by more than half of its original area. Today the cemetery area still covers 14.39 ares. The oldest gravestone dates back to 1842.

The Jewish community of Frankenau in Frankenau in the North Hessian district of Waldeck-Frankenberg existed from the 17th century until 1938/39.

From 1933, the number of Jewish residents decreased rapidly due to emigration and emigration. 27 persons emigrated to the USA, three persons in 1936 to Palestine/Israel. 28 persons moved within Germany, 15 of them to Frankfurt. The last family deregistered from Frankenau on March 28, 1939.

The exact age of the cemetery is not known (at least since the beginning of the 19th century). In 1879 the cemetery was expanded. The last burial probably took place in 1940 (Sabine Reiss née Katz). The cemetery area covers 25.15 ar. A memorial stone commemorates the "Jewish fellow citizens of the city of Herborn".

The first Jewish cemetery is said to have existed in Kassel as early as the Middle Ages. Around 1360, it was probably located on the Ahne, near the Judengasse. From 1385 to about 1587, there was a second cemetery on the site of today's Königsplatz.

The Jewish Cemetery Liebenau (Hesse) is a Jewish cemetery on the street Am Hopfenberg in Liebenau in the Hessian district of Kassel. He is a protected cultural monument.

The Jewish cemetery in Liebenau was established at the end of the 18th century (1791) and used until about 1920/21.

There are 13 graves available.  

 The Jewish cemetery in Witzenhausen was probably established in the 17th century in the area of the "old castle". In 1765 it was expanded by an agreement with the city and the "hereditary interest ownership of the city garden located at the ferry for use as Todtenhof" was regulated by the Jewish community. In a 1985 survey of the surviving gravestones, the oldest stone found was dated "around 1680." A total of 209 stones were still preserved at that time, 56 of which are in the newer part of the cemetery with graves from the 20th century.

The Jewish cemetery in Lübz was possibly established in the 18th century. The oldest preserved stone is from 1839, the youngest from 1924. The cemetery is said to have been occupied until 1934. The cemetery passed (already in 1916?) to the city. It was not destroyed during the Nazi period. The area of the cemetery is about 7.80 ares. Today there are still about 20 gravestones left, which were laid flat on the lawn in 1989.
