Neuer Jüdischer Friedhof, Jewish cemetery in Johannstadt, Germany.
The New Jewish Cemetery spans 13,900 square meters with over 2,600 graves, featuring a mortuary designed by architect Ernst Giese at its entrance.
The cemetery opened in 1867 when Dresden's Jewish community purchased land from the Kingdom of Saxony to address the overcrowding of the Old Jewish Cemetery.
This cemetery incorporated elements from Christian burial traditions, including non-eastern facing graves and permission for flowers and Christian symbols on gravestones.
The cemetery welcomes visitors Monday through Thursday from 8:00 to 17:00, Friday from 8:00 to 14:00, and Sunday from 9:00 to 16:00.
In 1975, a special grave was created to house Torah scrolls that were damaged during the Nazi period, making it a memorial site.
