Cemeteries

Not all towns in today's Waldeck-Frankenberg district had a Jewish population. Through historical development, there were places with high or low percentages. All places with a Jewish population are listed here.

Information on Jewish citizens has been compiled from various archives (including the Centrum Judaicum Berlin, the Central Archives for the History of the Jewish People in Jerusalem, the Marburg State Archives, archives of various communities in the district, newspaper archives) and from regional historical literature.

The researched biographies of former Jewish residents of the district can be accessed via the individual localities or via the family trees. Another way to gain access is to visit Jewish cemeteries.
