    A Jewish cemetery was laid out in the 18th century in Richrath (in Langenfeld on today's corner of Klosterstrasse / Am Schwarzen Weiher, location “Ganspohl”). It was used by the Jews in Richrath, Ganspohl, Immigrath, Hucklenbroich, Reusrath and Hitdorf.
    The burial site was occupied from the mid-18th century to 1986 and still exists. 51 gravestones have been preserved here.

    The Jewish cemetery was formerly called the Jewish churchyard. There are occasional public tours. The cemetery and gravestone culture of Jewish Langenfeld citizens is informative, with names like Ganspohl, Salomon, Herz... The gravestones are engraved in Hebrew and German, with words of gratitude to the deceased. Dated according to the Jewish calendar. The grave is always aligned exactly in the direction of Jerusalem.
