Mausoleum Hermann Weil, Jewish mausoleum near Waibstadt cemetery, Germany
The octagonal domed structure features a marble floor, mosaic ceiling, and an adjacent courtyard located next to the Jewish cemetery.
Built between 1924 and 1927, the mausoleum suffered severe damage during the November 1938 pogroms, with three urns disappearing without a trace.
Hermann Weil constructed this mausoleum next to the Jewish cemetery as traditional Jewish law prohibits urn burials within cemetery grounds.
The building underwent major renovations from 1980 to 1983 and again between 2010 and 2012 to preserve its structural integrity.
The mausoleum contains an intricate mosaic ceiling design and stands as a rare example of Jewish funeral architecture departing from traditional burial practices.
