The Autenhausen Jewish Cemetery is a Jewish cemetery in Autenhausen , a district of the town of Seßlach in the Upper Franconian district of Coburg .

The cemetery was created in 1839 on a hill 300 meters southeast of the village. At first it also served as a burial place for the Jewish community in nearby Coburg. It was documented until 1920. Mina and Seligmann Gutmann were the last to be buried in 1920.

The rectangular complex with almost 100 graves is bordered by a wall and is now a listed building .
