Cemetery Description:

Borken Judischer Friedhof, Jahnstraße, Borken (Hessen), Germany. 55 burials total.

bis 1942 Judische Familien in Borken Hessen by Domes, Oppenheimer, Klein, and Sielaff, published in Borken, Hessen, Germany in 2024. As noted in the book, "As a file in the Marburg State Archives reveals (Prot. III 1546), 55 graves were still preserved in 1938. The fact that we can still identify 51 graves today is probably due to the difficult times after 1933. Two children's graves remain without gravestones, and the burials of two wives between 1936 and 1938 were probably carried out, but were no longer carved on the existing husband's gravestones."
