Here, the border between France and Germany runs along, as a median strip, the "Neutral Street," known in France as "Rue de la Frontière" (Border Street), which runs through the town. Thus, on one side of the street, the houses are in Germany, on the other, in France.

In the Jewish faith, cemeteries – such as the "Cimetière Israélite" in Busendorf – are truly "resting places for eternity." The practice common in France or Germany (and many other countries), for example, whereby gravesites are "purchased" for a limited period of time, say 20 years, and are then cleared and released after this period, is completely alien to Jewish thought. A note for male visitors: As a sign of respect for our "elder brothers in the faith" (a quote from Pope John Paul II), gentlemen are asked to wear a head covering when entering a Jewish cemetery – provided it is open to the public.
