Jaffa Old Protestant Cemetery, Protestant cemetery in Jaffa, Israel

The cemetery contains 34 burial sites with tombstones featuring English inscriptions spread across a contained area near Yefet Street in Tel Aviv.

The cemetery represents the presence of Protestant communities in Jaffa during the 19th century, particularly those connected to British and American consulates.

Visitors can locate the cemetery behind the Scottish school Tabitha, accessing it through an alley branching from number 19 on Yefet Street.

The site maintains 30 identified graves and four grave remnants, serving as a historical record of Protestant settlers in the region.
