Reached by turning directly off a public road, access is open to all via a masonry wall and locking gate. The cemetery has 500-5000 18th-20th century marble, granite, limestone, and sandstone flat shaped tombstones (some with carved relief decorations), finely smoothed and inscribed stones, or double tombstones are in original locations. Inscriptions are German and Hebrew. The site is Jewish cemetery only. Adjacent properties are residential. Occasionally, private visitors stop.

Planned development is a minor threat.
