The Jewish Cemetery Chemnitz is a cemetery in the independent city of Chemnitz in Saxony.

The approximately 3000 [1] (according to other information about 13,000 [2]) m² large Jewish cemetery is west of the city center halfway up the Kaßbergs next to the Christian St. Matthew's Cemetery ("high way" street). There are about 1,250 tombstones. Several stones are overturned, some are damaged. The stone with the oldest dating dates from 1878.

The cemetery is divided into seven sections. There is a section for Orthodox Jews only and separate sections for children and rabbis. For Jews who worked in Chemnitz as a major industrialist, there are some notable monumental graves. The cemetery is still used for funerals.
