Specialist description

Na njem so pokopani Židje iz Lendave in okoliških vasi. Na pokopališču dolnjelendavskih Židov so spoštovali predpise, da morajo biti napisi na nagrobnih spomenikih obrnjeni proti Jeruzalemu. Židovsko pokopališče obdaja kamnita ograja. Dolnjelendavsko židovsko pokopališče se deli na tri dele, in sicer na hevro, prostor izven hevre in prostor za otroke.
Židje so na tem pokopališču začeli pokopavati svoje pokojnike leta 1850, 1880. leta pa so morali pokopališče že razširiti. Med nagrobnimi spomeniki iz 19. stoletja je najstarejši nagrobnik, na katerem so še vidni ime, priimek ter letnica smrti žene Lipóta Kreucza, ki je umrla 3. junija 1861. Preproste kamnite nagrobnike so od preloma preloma iz 19. v 20. stoletje in do druge svetovne vojne zamenjali imenitni, dragoceni spomeniki iz črnega marmorja, ki so pričali o gmotnem položaju židovskih družin. Zadnja pogreba, na katerih o opravili židovski pogrebni obred, sta bila še med drugo svetovno vojno, leta 1943.
