A report for Maitland City Council
Abstract
Maitland Jewish Cemetery is a NSW Heritage Listed site. It is significant as the earliest, largest and most intact dedicated Jewish cemetery in NSW. It also marks the important place of Jewish residents in the early history of Maitland, and reflects the rise and decline of that community – and of Maitland more broadly – during the nineteenth and into the early twentieth centuries.<br/>Over the past decade, a range of research, interpretation and conservation work has seen the cemetery rescued from a period of neglect. It is now sensitively conserved, fenced, landscaped and documented.<br/>This interpretation plan builds on this existing work, and provides a framework and strategies for sharing the history of the cemetery and its conservation, and for engaging a variety of audiences.
