The Mattersburg Cemetery, where approximately 1,500 people are buried, has existed since 1694 and is an important testament to Jewish life in the region. During the Nazi era, almost all gravestones were removed, leaving a painful gap in the history of the Jewish community. After 1945, a memorial wall was erected from the surviving gravestone fragments, commemorating the lost graves. Later, symbolic gravestones supplemented this reminder. The Jewish Museum in Eisenstadt has created a register of individuals buried in the cemetery, offering valuable insights into the people interred there. The cemetery is currently locked, but the key can be obtained from the municipality. Guided tours are offered by appointment, gently familiarizing visitors with the history and significance of this sacred site. The Mattersburg Cemetery stands as a silent monument to the region's Jewish history and cultural heritage.

The figures on the pedestal of the Plague Column in Mattersburg depict the four plague saints, who were venerated in the Middle Ages as patron saints against devastating epidemics. St. Sebastian is traditionally depicted as a martyr pierced by arrows and is considered one of the most important patron saints against epidemics. Beside him stands St. Roch, usually recognizable by his pilgrim's robe and the plague boil on his thigh, accompanied by his faithful dog, who brings him food. St. Barbara can be recognized by her attributes, such as a tower or a chalice; she protects the dying and preserves from sudden death. Finally, St. Mary Magdalene appears as a penitent saint, often with an ointment jar or a skull, indicating transience. These figures symbolize protection and hope in times of plague-related hardship and are a central part of the artistic design of the Mattersburg Plague Column.
