Photodocumentation of Jewish Gravestones in Baden-Württemberg
This collection is a database of the work done by the Landesdenkmalamt Baden-Württemberg, which contains basic documentation and photographs of gravestones for 141 Jewish cemeteries in the Baden-Württemberg region. It contains copies of the photographs of almost all tombstones in the Jewish cemeteries in the state. These photos have been linked to information obtained from the gravestones, containing names, dates, and places, to the extent that the stones were legible.

The photographs on the web site were primarily taken in the 1980s by the Zentralarchiv zur Erforschung der Geschichte der Juden in Deutschland. The organization also had a role in preparing some of the cemetery documentation.

To browse a particular cemetery click on "Strukturansicht" and then on the next page click the folder with the plus to the left of the cemetery name. The folders listed below will each contain twenty gravestones. After clicking on one of the Grabstein folders a page with names and basic gravestone information will appear on the right. To access the photo of the gravestone click on the Archivalieneinheiten link in each gravestone entry. Clicking on the photo brings you to another page where you can zoom or rotate the photo.
Alternatively, you can search for individuals. To do this click on full text search (Volltextsuche) and enter a name in the Suchtext box. After you click on Suche you will get a page of results. In order to see the full information for the gravestone select Strukturansicht in the relevant search result. If you are searching for a first and last name together it may be useful to change the Verknüpfung (search operation) setting from "zusammenhängender Ausdruck" (phrase) to "Jeder Begriff muss gefunden werden (UND)" (each term must be found)so that the names are found regardless of their order in the database entry.
