Novo Cemetery, Sephardic Jewish cemetery in Mile End, England.

The Novo Cemetery contains multiple rows of historic gravestones within the grounds of Queen Mary University of London, recording centuries of Jewish heritage.

Established in 1733 as the second Sephardic cemetery in Mile End, the burial ground operated until 1905 for adults and 1918 for children.

Notable figures interred here include Rabbi Shalom Buzaglo from Morocco, Jacob de Castro Sarmento, and Benjamin D'Israeli, grandfather of the future prime minister.

Located at 320 Mile End Road in Tower Hamlets, visitors can access the cemetery through educational programs coordinated by Queen Mary University of London.

The cemetery remains one of only two exclusively Sephardic burial grounds in England, earning Grade II listed status for its historical significance in 2014.
