Jewish cemetery (Dömitz)
The Dömitz Jewish cemetery is a Jewish cemetery in Dömitz in the Ludwigslust-Parchim district in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania . It is located in the area of the former Theodor-Körner barracks and can be reached via Fröbelstrasse and Birkenallee. There are no more tombstones on the cemetery area of around 1180 m² . An obelisk erected in 1951 as a memorial stone using gravestone slabs and the enclosure by a fence are reminiscent of the cemetery.
history
It is not known how old the Jewish cemetery is. It was probably used until around 1920 and maintained until 1938 - the Jewish community dissolved in 1919. In 1947 the city council decided that the cemetery should be restored. This decision was implemented in April 1951 by around 50 citizens of Dömitz in a joint action. The tombstones were erected and the fencing was renewed.
