"...The Jewish community since the early 19th century:

In 1808 the first Jewish family settled in Werden. Initially, the Werden Jews belonged to the Essen synagogue community. They were independent by the Weimar period at the latest. In 1932 Kupferalt was connected.

Community size around 1815: –, around 1880: 69 (1885), 1932: Not stated / 52 (1933), 2006: –.

Prayer house / synagogue: First we visited the synagogue in Kettwig. A rented prayer house is mentioned in 1843; In 1891 a new prayer room was set up. The building was demolished after 1945 (above information according to Reuter 2007).

Cemetery:

The Werden Jewish cemetery on Pastoratsberg (today located in the Heidhausen district) was laid out after 1830. There is evidence of his gravestones from 1844 to 1938; 70 gravestones have been preserved.

The cemetery, hidden in the forest, can be easily reached on foot from the youth hostel on Pastoratsberg or from the “Haus am Turm” conference center. There is no indication of the burial site on site. The Jewish cemetery is fenced in and not open to the public; it can only be partially seen from the outside. ..."
