The Jewish cemetery in Bad Freienwalde (Oder) is located at the foot of the Galgenberg . It can be reached via a cul-de-sac next to the Catholic Church in Goethestrasse . The cemetery is entered in the list of monuments of the state of Brandenburg.

The site for the cemetery was laid out in 1690. Until 1730 the cemetery was also used by the Jewish community of Wriezen, from then on they were able to occupy the Jewish cemetery in Wriezen. During the pogrom night from November 9th to 10th, the cemetery was destroyed, but there was no further destruction. The cemetery was cleared in the late 1940s. In 1950 a black marble monument was erected. The front bears an inscription and three stars of David .
