From 1823 to 1932 the Jewish citizens of Bad Münstereifel buried their dead here in the Quecken forest cemetery. How many people found their final resting place in the Jewish cemetery is unknown. Some graves were lost and some inscriptions are no longer legible, which is also due to the devastation during the Pogrom Night in 1938. Source: Information board at the entrance to the cemetery
