· The cemetery is located at Cyriakstrasse (Gedenkstein) within the EGA Geländes Cemetery that is still used at Werner-Seelenbinder- Str. 3 next to the Thüringenhalle. The old synagogue is at Michaelisstrasse 2. Only a few stone supports are left where something else will probably soon be built. There is a small synagogue at Stadtmünze 5, today called Begegnungsstätte. The new synagogue is at Juri-Gagarin- Ring 16 (built in 1952 over where the old one was in 1983.)
