The Jewish Cemetery in Mattersburg is an important testament to Jewish history in Burgenland and today serves as a protected memorial site, reminding us of the once-thriving community and the burial ground destroyed during the Nazi era.

The Jewish cemetery in Mattersburg, established in 1694, is one of the most significant testimonies to Jewish history in Burgenland. As the burial site of the once-flourishing Jewish community, which was part of the Seven Holy Communities (Schewa Kehilot), around 1,500 individuals were buried here until 1938. During the Nazi era, the cemetery was severely damaged; many grave stones were removed or destroyed. In 1966, remaining fragments of gravestones were assembled into a memorial wall, and symbolic gravestones were erected to preserve the character of the cemetery.

Today, the cemetery is a protected monument and serves as a quiet place of remembrance for the Jewish community of Mattersburg.

The cemetery is accessible by appointment at the Mattersburg town hall.
