    COMMENTS: this cemetery was completely destroyed during the Nazi period. According to Bormann the local authority received instructions in 1940 to remove all gravestones to the pit of the Liblar brickworks. During reconstruction of the cemetery in 1961 by the local authority, new gravestones were made. According to Schulte, a memorial stone was erected as early as 1950.
