Jüdischer Friedhof, Jewish cemetery in Kempen, Germany
The cemetery contains 94 gravestones from 1845 to 1944, spread across a 2,100 square meter area near the Kamperlings settlement.
The Jewish community established this burial ground in 1809 after regaining permission to settle in Kempen during the French occupation period.
The older tombstones display Hebrew inscriptions on the front side, while German text appears on the back when present.
Visitors need to contact the municipal parks department of Kempen for permission to access the cemetery grounds.
In 2007, Max Mendel, the only Jewish resident of Kempen who survived the National Socialist period, was buried in this cemetery.
