Jüdischer Friedhof Schwelm
Jüdischer Friedhof Schwelm, Jewish cemetery in Schwelm, Germany.
The cemetery extends across a hillside location approximately 1300 meters from the old town center, containing 86 gravestones arranged in systematic rows.
Established around 1776, the cemetery served the Jewish community of Schwelm and surrounding areas until 1943, when the last burial took place.
The gravestones display a progression from traditional sandstone to polished granite, featuring inscriptions that document the Jewish heritage of the region.
Located at Delle 64 in Schwelm, the cemetery remains accessible to visitors and receives maintenance from the city and local volunteers.
The oldest preserved gravestone dates from 1713, predating the cemetery's official establishment, while one 20th-century memorial was created by sculptor Leopold Fleischhacker.
