The cemetery was established in 1874. Up to 1937, around 200 people were laid to rest there. Some 100 Hungarian Jews who were murdered on a death march in 1945 are also buried there in a mass grave. The ceremonial hall was demolished in the 1960s. There is a monument commemorating the town’s 86 Holocaust victims. The cemetery is kept locked; information on accessibility and guided tours is available from the Jewish Community Linz or the Mauthausen Committee Steyr.
