Memorial Jewish Cemetery

Very nice if sad place.

Very peaceful, nice place to pay respects as it is a green area that was once a graveyard.

Such a fascinating site, a place to remember those who struggled during dark times.

Beautiful and nice area to walk around and have a meal or a drink.

Site of an old Jewish cemetery that is now a mass grave. The one reconstructed grave is of Moses Mendelssohn. The entire area is well maintained, covered with ivy, with quiet walking paths. The statues by the front are very thought provoking, and you will see where the pebbles by the front gate are replaced on a daily basis.

An old destroyed jewish graveyard. At first sight it just looks like a green field but that's kind of part of it's history as the graveyard got destroyed. when you walk through you will see some old gravestones. Really peaceful inside, but as next to it is a jewish school, many school kids sit around normally during day times and it can easily get quite noisy.

If there is a God, he will have to beg my forgiveness.

Spectacular. Even more if you know it's background.

Very humbling

Ein Ort der Besinnung. Nie wieder Krieg! Nie wieder Faschismus! Eine Mahnung an uns alle! Erschreckend für mich, dass jüdische Einrichtungen heute unter Polizeischutz stehen müssen. Wehren den Anfängen!

4 dagen Berlijn in december.
Prachtige historische stad. Zeker de moeite waard

Il ne reste plus rien. Quelques pierres tombales conservées. Lieu de mémoire pour une société qui a disparu. Pensez à vous couvrir la tête tel que demandé. Par respect.

Der Ort bedrückt, es ist nicht viel vom Friedhof übriggeblieben- einige Grabplatten und das Grab Moses Mendelsohns. Trotzdem sehr eindrücklich.

Indrukwekkend memorial, net buiten de oude Joodse begraafplaats, die in 1943 werd verwoest.

È un luogo meraviglioso, di pace e memoria, un tempo sito del più antico cimitero ebraico della capitale, fatta eccezione per un suo prodromo a Spandau. A parte le antichissime lapidi a parete, sul muro di recinto meridionale, è distinguibile solo la lapide singola di Moses Mendelssohn, padre dell'Haskalah, il cosiddetto "Illuminismo ebraico" più volte rimossa, vandalizzata e adesso in situ dagli anni Novanta. Il resto del sito è ricoperto di edera e altre piante rampicanti che nascondono secoli di sepolture.

Once here was a Jewish retirement home, which had been built after the closure of the old Jewish cemetery in 1844. In 1942 inside the National Socialists collected Jewish people who had been captured for transportation to Auschwitz and Theresienstadt. In 1943, the old people's home was destroyed.
The cemetery was destroyed in 1943 by the Gestapo. The remains of the Jews who had been buried there a hundred years before were removed.
In the last days of the the Second World War dead civilians and soldiers were buried in mass graves in the cemetery. There is a plaque on one of the walls which reminds the visitors.
Apart from the memorial in front of the cemetery some remained tombstones and the tomb of Moses Mendelsohn there is not much to see. Nevertheless, this place is a place of silent remembrance.

Hier stand früher das jüdische Altersheim, das nach der Schließung des Friedhofs 1844 errichtet wurde. In ihm wurden von den Nationalsozialisten ab 1942 die zum Abtransport nach Auschwitz und Theresienstadt festgenommenen jüdischen Menschen gesammelt. 1943 wurde das Altersheim zerstört.
Der Friedhof wurde 1943 von der Gestapo zerstört. Die sterblichen Überreste der dort 100 Jahre zuvor beigesetzten Juden wurden beseitigt.
In den letzten Kriegstagen wurden auf dem Friedhof Kriegstote in Massengräbern verscharrt. Daran erinnert ein Gedenkstein an einer der Mauern.
Abgesehen von dem Mahnmal vor dem Friedhof, einigen geretteten Grabsteinen und der Grabstätte von Moses Mendelsohn ist nicht viel zu sehen. Dennoch ist dieser Ort ein Ort der stillen Gedenkens.
