Sulzburg Jewish Cemetery ( German: jüdischer Friedhof Sulzburg) is a Jewish burial place located in Sulzburg, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. [1] It is listed as a heritage site.
The Jewish cemetery is located on Badstraße [1] in Berholz Forest. [2] It spreads over 61.48 ares. [2]
The cemetery was probably built in the mid-16th century. [1] [2] Jews from Sulzburg and neighbouring locations were buried there until a collective Jewish cemetery was opened in Lörrach in 1670. During several decades, no grave was added and the cemetery fell into ruin.
In 1717, the cemetery recovered its initial role. [1] [2] The small room was built at this time. The cemetery has 462 graves, the oldest datable one being from 1737. [1] [2] Evidence of desecration can be seen in the modern part of the cemetery. [1]
In 1970, a monument was erected to commemorate the victims of the persecution of Jews in the Third Reich. [2]
