Stones that speak volumes

Jewish Fürth

Alter jüdischer Friedhof mit aneinandergereihten Grabsteinen, Bäumen und stiller, würdevoller Atmosphäre.

Stones that speak volumes

Be impressed by the dignified atmosphere at the Old Jewish Cemetery in Fürth. Many famous rabbis, such as Meschullam Salman Kohn, and charitable patrons, such as Alfred Nathan, founder of the first infant clinic in Bavaria, were buried here. The old gravestones reveal a lot about the history of the Jewish community in Fürth. Covering almost 20,000 square meters, the cemetery is still one of the oldest, largest, and most important cemeteries in Germany and Europe.

Here you can visit a natural and cultural monument in the middle of the city. The cemetery is impressive testimony to the 400 years of beneficial work carried out by the Jewish population in and for Fürth. For me, it is an absolute eye-catcher that is hard to find anywhere else in Germany. See for yourself!
