A wonderful place in the forest:
On the Jewish cemetery, which was probably laid out at the end of the 16th century or in the 17th century, Jews from the Electoral Palatinate area and places immediately outside the Empire found their final resting place. It has 2,556 gravestones on an area of 233.32 acres, the oldest dating from 1690 and the youngest from 1940.
