The Jewish cemetery in Anröchte

The Jewish cemetery Anröchte is a Jewish cemetery in the town of Anröchte in the Soest district . It is on Pohlgartenstrasse.

The 2,170 m² cemetery served the Anröchte Jewish community as a burial place even before 1800. The last funeral took place in 1997. The 46 tombstones ( Mazewot ) are partly badly weathered.

The cemetery itself is bordered by a stone wall; numerous poplars provide shade.
