Jewish cemetery in Karczew-Anielin (colloquially called the cemetery in Anielin) to distinguish it from the actual cemetery in Karczew) – a cemetery founded in the 19th century. During World War II, it was devastated by the Germans, but on an area of 1.7 hectares, about 900 matzevot have been preserved. Jews permanently living in Otwock were usually buried in the cemetery in Karczew, and those who were patients in Otwock hospitals and sanatoriums – in the cemetery in Karczew-Anielin. Among those buried in the cemetery is the writer Urke Nachalnik, shot by the Germans in October 1939, but the exact location of his grave is unknown. During the PRL period, many tombstones were destroyed, graves were plundered, and a high-voltage line was run through the cemetery.

During the PRL period, many tombstones were destroyed, graves were plundered, and a high-voltage line was run through the cemetery. In recent years, the Social Committee for the Memory of Jews from Otwock and Karczew has been carrying out cleanup work on the cemetery grounds. In August 2007, heavy boulders began to be laid along the cemetery borders. This made it possible to fence off half of its area.
