Local before arrival
This 104-acre Jewish Community Cemetery was consecrated to the city of Berlin in 1880. It is one of the most beautiful places of its type in Europe and is a protected monument. The old mourning hall was built early on and is renowned for its excellent acoustics. Beside the precisely laid out plots with their diverse headstones and memorials, the more overgrown patches with their ivied tombstones and mausoleums are really what give the cemetery the charm that so many visitors love.
