There had been a community in Nümbrecht since 1791; It was not until 1901, after many decades, that a higher-level synagogue community was formed that included Nümbrecht, Waldbröl and Ruppichteroth. In 1921 the Jews of Ruppichteroth separated from Nümbrecht again. In 1932 Ruppichteroth and Waldbröl were connected.

    A memorial was inaugurated in the cemetery on May 28, 1995. Seven granite steles were erected and plaques were set into the ground bearing the names of the extermination camps in which the Jewish citizens of Nümbrecht were murdered. On a stone slab it is written in Hebrew: The righteous perish, and no one takes it to heart, and the righteous are taken away, and no one notices that the righteous is taken away by wickedness (Isaiah 57:1).
