Judenfriedhof

The cemetery extends over 9,290 square meters and contains 542 gravestones arranged in traditional rows across the sloping terrain.

From its establishment in 1735 until 1942, this cemetery served as a regional burial ground for Jewish communities from Aschaffenburg and surrounding towns.

The cemetery gravestones feature Hebrew inscriptions and represent burial traditions of Jewish communities from multiple neighboring municipalities including Bessenbach and Goldbach.

The cemetery stands at Haidbergstraße 30 in Aschaffenburg, enclosed by stone walls and contains numerous birch trees among the memorial stones.

In 1942, the final burials took place when six residents chose to end their lives rather than face deportation during the National Socialist period.
