Guided Walk of Bath Jewish Burial Ground

  • Bath Jewish Burial Ground 1 Greendown Place Bath, England, BA2 5DD United Kingdom (map)

Hidden behind high stone walls in Combe Down is a remarkable cemetery - the Bath Jewish Burial Ground (1812-1921). Rescued from dereliction the cemetery reveals the hidden diversity of the City which was so much more than a Georgian spa for wealthy people.

Our Guided walk will inform and entertain you with the fascinating history of Bath's Jewish Community from the early 1800s brought to life through the history of the Burial Ground and the fascinating stories of some of the people buried here.

Free, limited numbers, advance booking essential: chair@bathjewishburialground.org
