Hiking

The Jewish cemetery, which was laid out on Ebnether Berg in 1620, is one of the largest Jewish country cemeteries in Bavaria with almost 2,000 gravestones. The first Jews settled in Burgkunstadt and the surrounding area as early as the middle of the 13th century. The first burial in the cemetery took place in 1626, although one could have already taken place in 1623, but no tombstone has survived.
