To enter the cemetery, obtain the key at "Amt fuer Gruenflaesher und Naturshuts", which is at Octerhauser Alle 15, Marburg. Call: 06421/201704 or 06421/201705 or 6 and ask for Mr. Fuller or Hakenbrink. To get to the above location from the Autobahn B3, follow UniversitaetStrasse W. It will become Octerhause Alle. 15 is on the right. The cemetery itself is then east of B3. Once you cross B3, the name of the street becomes Schumacher Bruecke. Cross B3 and then the railroad track and the cemetery is immediately on the left. There is a small driveway by the stoplight. Go or park nearby. The gate sticks. Push hard. There is a burial house with a memorial plaque for those who died in WWII. There are about 400-500 tombstones, most still upright. Some are in great shape, some awful. The front section, which is still used, is the only one mowed; the rest has tall grass. Inscriptions are in Hebrew and German. You must also return the key. Source: Arline Sachs, sachs@nova.org

UPDATE: Christof Eberstadt,CPA-Eberstadt@t-online.de has donated the list of all 38 burials to the JOWR.
The town is located about 10 km north of Kitzingen. Current town population is about 2000 with no Jews. The Ju(ue)discher Friedhof Massbach cemetery at Street Obere FriedhofsStrasse, Massbach was not destroyed in Holocaust. Cemetery Hours: open round the clock. Mrs. Heim, Massbach is the caretaker with the key.
The Jewish community dates from at least the 17th century. Cemetery dates from about 1900. Massbach and Poppenlauer used this unlandmarked Conservative and Reform cemetery. The last burial was 1945, Felix Heidelberger. No mass graves.
The isolated suburban hillside has a (rusted) sign inside the cemetery fence, which prohibits disturbance acts and destruction, announcing legal persecution in doing so. The cemetery is reached by turning directly off a public road: Main Street in Massbach "PoppenlauerStrasse", turn to the south in "Bad Kissingen" direction, next crossing to the right (place of church and catholic cemetery); take next road left hand ("Obere Friedhoftrasse"); after about. 300 m take the unpaved path left hand. After 20, m you see a wooden door to the left in a fence. Access to the 400 square meter cemetery is open with permission of Mrs. Heim. A continuous fence with a locking gate and a hedge/row of trees surround the cemetery.
The oldest known gravestone dates from 1904. Tombstones in the cemetery date from 1904-1945. 38 gravestones are in cemetery, all in original location. Some are broken and repaired. Broken glass plates can be seen. The granite, limestone, and sandstone finely smoothed and inscribed stones and double tombstones, some with iron decorations or lettering or bronze decorations or lettering other than metallic elements, have German inscriptions. The cemetery contains no special memorial monuments. The present owner of the cemetery property is probably the State of Bavaria. The cemetery property is now used for a cultural site (only remaining memorial of Jewish history in Massbach). Frequently, probably organized Jewish groups/tours or organized individual tours, but definitely private visitors stop at the site. The cemetery was vandalized during Third Reich. Past maintenance includes re-erecting stones, patching broken stones, and clearing vegetation, possibly by US Military authorities after the end of WWII and local or municipal authorities, and regional or national authorities.
Current Care is occasional clearing or cleaning by individuals or cleaning by authorities and the regular unpaid caretaker. Within the limits of the cemetery are no structures. Vandalism and security (at night) are moderate threats. Weather erosion is a serious threat. The vegetation overgrowths in the cemetery and water drainage at the cemetery are not problems.

We visited the cemetery June l995 and It was in excellent condition and is located on HeerStrasse, south of the Catholic cemetery. During the war the gravestones were buried and were unearthed after the war. My parents returned in l961 to have the Fischbach stone re-ingraved with names of family members who died in the Holocaust. In January 1977, Rudiger Benninghaus, who was doing research on the Jews of Meinerzhagen, sent me a list of 25 graves and l3 gravestones. In fall of l979, three additional graves were found. Mr. Benninghaus wrote "Diese Steine wurden erst nach der Neubepflanzung der Graber im Herbst '79 sichtbar bzw. lesbar." (These stones were first found in the fall of 1979 when the cemetrey was cleaned.) There are also approximately 26 gravestones of Russian prisoners who died of starvation during WWII, buried in a row at the right side of the cemetery.

The Mertloch cemetery is on the road from Mertloch to Naunheim, south of Mertloch. There are approximately 110 gravesites. Mertloch is near Koblenz. It is a small, gated graveyard in the middle of a field. We visited there in the 60's and were able to obtain the key to the cemetery from the local burgermeister. The metal nameplates on the graves had all been removed, but we were able to identify our relatives' graves from the photo we had from before WWII.
In 1982, a distant cousin published a dissertation with more info. on this cemetery and others. The last address we have for him is Leopold Hoenig, 453-C FDR Drive #C-1504, New York, NY 10002. The work is copywritten. The book diagrams the cemetery and includes names and information on all those buried there. Please let us know if you are successful reaching Leopold.

SOURCE

Der Gute Ort: Ausstellung zum Alten Israelitischen Friedhof an der Thalkirchner Strasse; by Clemens, Wolfgang J.; Begleitheft.-Muenchen: Historischer Arbeitskreis Sendling, 1991.- 15 pages.
We visited in August 2000. The local Jewish community center gave us the phone number, so we called and made an appointment as suggested. The cemetery is beautifully kept and the attendant was most helpful. She was able to locate most of the graves we sought and had records with the death dates and ages of my ancestors plus the current contact where there was one." Kitty Cooper. [June 2001]

HISTORY:

A Jewish cemetery was first mentioned in 1416, situated between Moosach and the Rennweg. Up to this time the community had to bury their Dead in the Regensburg cemetery. The Rennwegis the route Schleissheimer/Lerchenauer Strasse, suggesting that the cemetery was somewhere between Schleissheimer Strasse and Moosach. It is assumed that this cemetery was destroyed, following the expulsion of the Jews from the city in 1442. According to a 19th century report, the actual cemetery location was in the grounds of Dachauer Strasse 24, supporting an earlier report of its location, although no trace of a cemetery has ever been found. A Jewish community was not re-established again in Munich until the end of the 18th century. At that time they had to bury their dead in the Kriegshaber cemetery near Augsburg.

COMMENTS:

The Alte Israelitische Friedhof (the Old Jewish Cemetery) was dedicated on 24th March 1816 in the Thalkirchner Strasse. On 31st October 1837 the "Allgemeine Zeitung des Judentums" reported a cost of around 12,000 Gulden as the purchase price of the ground and the construction of the mortuary etc. The community reached the target in barely 4 days. The cemetery was enlarged in 1854, 1871 and 1881. It is surrounded by a high brick wall, which had to be renewed and lengthened in 1881 to a length of 575 meters. Memorial gravestones worth seeing are those of Leopold von Klenze (1784-1864) an architect, painter and writer. He was the Court architect of Bavarian King Ludwig I.

LOCATION OF CEMETERY: 2
NEW: Garchinger Strasse 37 Munich 80805 (near Domag Strasse) (Neuer Israelitische Friedhof).
IN USE: -

from 1908 until the present, divided into 12 sections and surrounded by a concrete wall nearly 1 kilometre long.

COMMENT:

This cemetery holds the graves amongst others of the politicians Eugen Leviné (1883-1919) and Kurt Eisner (1867-1919) and that of the writer Gustav Landauer (1870-1919).

It is very old, going back into the early 1700's at least! Some sandstone tombstones are so old that it is rather difficult to determine the engravings. I visited it in September 1984 and found it in very good shape. It is in the east part of town, off MaximilianStrasse.

The cemetery is in the middle of a cornfield on the very outskirts of town. It was locked and the key was said to be available in the Rathaus of Nonnenweir.

     Near the Netherlands. The Godenkins (see end for address) have been very instrumental in putting info together about the former Jewish community in Norden and in the formation of a group to work on Jewish matters in Norden. They have worked very hard and have become extremely knowledgeable. They know more about the former community than any of the surviving former members. The community was quite amazing in that although there were never more than 90 families, they had a very active Jewish life and, besides the synagogue, even had a home for the rabbi and for a Jewish teacher.
     In 1988, in Norden, a monument was dedicated at the site of the former synagogue which was destroyed on Kristalnacht. In preparation for the visit, the cemetery was cleaned up and in doing so, some very old and previously unrecorded grave stones were uncovered. I assisted the Godekins and their group in putting together the wording in Hebrew and German of a memorial stone for the Jewish cemetery in Norden which will list the names of all the former Jews of Norden who were killed in the Shoah. Although difficult to translate and get the right meaning, the wording in English is approximately: "Father of Compassion, Who dwells on high, grant proper rest on the wings of the Divine Presence for the souls of those who were murdered through the hands of the German oppressors. May the Master of Mercy bind their souls in the Bond of Life together with the other righteous men and women in the Garden of Eden."
     The cemetery in Norden is in quite good condition and there are graves dating back hundreds of years. The person to contact for info is: Lina Godeken, Kurzer Weg 29, 2980 Norden 1, Germany.
     Jews who fled the inquisition in Portugal arrived in Emden (a port town). After a number of years, they were thrown out of Emden and most migrated to Amsterdam. This is the origin of the Amsterdam Jewish community. Others wandered into the country-side and formed communities that remained for approximately 400 years in places like Aurich, Wittmund, Norden, and Dornum. Although the Jewish community in Norden never numbered more than 100 families, it was organized enough to have its own synagogue, home for its rabbi as well as a home for its Jewish teacher. The origins of the community are (obviously) sephardic, but ashkenazim came into the community in the early to mid 1700s (probably after some pogrom) and it became a very mixed community thereafter. The community actually had a book published, "The Minchagim of Norden"! It was recently translated here in Israel into Hebrew. Source: Jack De Lowe, delowe@netvision.net.il.
