Hiking

The last burial in the Jewish cemetery took place on March 2, 1934 (Abraham Hutzler). In the same year, the Jewish community Hagenbach-Wannbach was dissolved. In 1941, plans were made to plant mulberry trees in the Jewish cemetery in Hagenbach for silkworm breeding, which ultimately never happened. Between 1933 and 1945 the burial ground was spared from desecration. About 385 tombstones have been preserved there, each representing the style of the time and showing the economic position of the people buried there.

Hiking

It's worth taking a short detour from the hiking trail that passes below. The gate is locked. The hedge that surrounds it is so low that you can easily see over it.
