Jewish Cemetery Freudental
Highlight • Historical Site
The Jewish community of Freudental already had a Jewish cemetery from 1723, but it was leveled in 1811 to create a pheasant shop for the king of Württemberg. Four gravestone fragments are now in the former Synagogue Affaltrach.
After the old Jewish cemetery was closed, the Jewish community set up a new cemetery on the north-western slope of the Steinbach valley. It has an area of 24.92 ares and the small cemetery hall (Tahara house) has been preserved. The dead of the Zaberfeld Jewish community, which had been part of the Freudental Jewish community since 1832, were also buried in Freudental.
Today there are 435 gravestones (Mazewot) in the cemetery, the last funeral was in 1970.
In 2007 there were several desecrations in which gravestones were smeared, knocked over and also broken.
