description

The Jewish cemetery in Blomberg was laid out in the former Heitheck Garden at the beginning of the 20th century and was occupied until 1934. It is also known as the new Jewish cemetery. Six tombstones ( mazewot ) are still preserved in the cemetery today .

By 1898 there was already an older Jewish cemetery in Blomberg in the area of ​​Heutorstrasse and Rosenstrasse. This cemetery, presumably from the 17th / 18th century, has now disappeared under a park pallet. There is also said to have been a medieval predecessor of this burial place, which can no longer be located.
