Renovation

In 1996, the association "Shalom" had the desolate cemetery renovated; since then it has been maintained by the municipality. In 2000, the capacitation of the ceremonial hall, which was financially supported by public and private donors, was initiated. In 2001 and in accordance with the Washington Agreement, the Republic of Austria committed itself to the restoration and partly conservation of Jewish cemeteries; in 2012, a federal law was passed for this purpose. In May 2022, the Fund for the Restoration of Austria's Jewish Cemeteries approved the general planning of the necessary work. The renovation was completed in spring 2024.

Another small, today entirely dishevelled cemetery of the IKG was set out in 1871 in Neulengbach. Until 1943, it contained approximately 70 plots and a mortuary. The latter does not exist anymore.
