The cemetery was founded in 1860 and up to now, 140 gravestones have been preserved. Many of them have been damaged, however the grave of Fränkel family, which had a significant meaning for the town of Prudnik, is still to be found. Also, a memorial of Jews, who were killed in Prudnik in 1945 and imprisoned in concentration camp Auschwitz-Birkenau is to be found here. Next to the cemetery, there is the building, which used to be a funeral house. Today its function is the chapel of the Pentecostal Church.
