history

The dead of the Jewish community in Ihringen were first buried in the Jewish cemetery in Emmendingen . Around 1800 a separate cemetery was built on the way to Blankenhornsberg . The cemetery has an area of ​​16.44 acres and today there are still 255 tombstones ( mazewot ). The oldest tombstone is from 1810 and the last burial took place in 1937.

In 1990 and 2007 the cemetery was badly desecrated . 177 of the 200 gravestones were overturned and partially smashed. Gravestones and the cemetery wall were sprayed with National Socialist signs and slogans: “Come on, Jude, we're going to Dachau” and “Judenschweine vereket” (sic!).
