Coming Street Cemetery
Coming Street Cemetery, Jewish cemetery from 1762 in Charleston, South Carolina.
The Coming Street Cemetery contains 600 marble and brownstone grave markers arranged within a stuccoed brick wall perimeter dating from the colonial period.
Established during the American colonial era, this burial ground represents one of the oldest Jewish cemeteries in the southern United States and operated until 1887.
Hebrew inscriptions on gravestones document the presence of early Jewish settlers who contributed to the development of Charleston's commerce and religious institutions.
The cemetery maintains restricted access for visitors, with arrangements through the Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim Synagogue required for entry and tours.
A distinct wall division within the cemetery grounds marks the physical separation caused by religious disagreements in the Beth Elohim congregation during the 1800s.
