From the book, "Graves in the Forest," copyright 2003 by the City Archive of Horb, page ix.

According to the book "Graeber im Wald", published by the City Archive of Horb, the Mühringen cemetery has existed since the early 16th century and is among the oldest in Württemberg. Jews from Horb, Haigerloch, Rexingen, Hemmendorf, Poltringen und Rottweill were also buried here.

Aus dem Buch "Gräber Im Wald" copyright Stadtarchiv Horb 2003, Seite IX:
"Der Mühringer Friedhof besteht seit dem frühen 16. Jahrhundert und gehört zu den ältesten in Württemberg. Hier wurden auch Juden aus Horb, Haigerloch, Rexingen, Hemmendorf, Poltringen und Rottweill begraben."

The bronze plaque to the right of the entrance gate says (in English translation):

***Jewish Cemetery of Mühringen***
A burial place for 400 years. From time to time also for the dead of surrounding Jewish communities. Over 800 people found their resting place here - but not the last 14 Jewish citizens of Mühringen - they were dragged away in 1941 and murdered ...their remains put into makeshift graves or incinerated.
