Jews are recorded in Walldorf for the 16th and 17th centuries, when they were accepted by the three manor owners who owned Walldorf.
This resulted in three congregations, which were allowed to unite to form a Jewish congregation in 1789 and subsequently opened a joint school and a synagogue.
In 1810 the place had 238 Jewish residents.
In 1849 there were 562 Jewish residents out of a total of 1637 inhabitants.

The Jewish cemetery in Walldorf near Meiningen is a silent testament to centuries of Jewish history in the Werra Valley. It was established in the 18th century, and the oldest legible gravestone dates from 1737. On the hill in the Aalleite area, approximately 80 gravestones still lie today, including many historic matzevot (grave grave markers) that recall the once vibrant Jewish community.
