According to the neighboring information sign, the cemetery was used until 1927; a few years later there were no Jews in the area for the known reasons. In the Second World War 30 Soviet sodata / forced laborers were buried again, which is only remembered by the plaque.

Jewish cemetery from 1791. "30 Russian soldiers and civilians" were buried here between 1942 and 1944 during World War II. Unfortunately, it is not noted whether these were forced laborers who died here.

Great very old cemetery. You can also enter from outside the gate and admire the old tombstones from the 19th century.
