If you're new to our congregation or a visitor to Beautiful Beaufort, you may find it interesting that we have a Jewish Cemetery. Open to the public by appointment only, it is located at 906 Bladen Street in Beaufort. The Jewish community decided in 1910 to establish their own cemetery. The land was purchased and by 1912, the cemetery was officially established. Beaufort Jews no longer had to be buried in Savannah or Charleston.

Learn more about our Cemetery. The Jewish Historical Society of South Carolina has more information, as well. Want to learn more about who is buried in our Cemetery? Visit here. Interested in helping tend to our beautiful cemetery or interested in making end-of-life plans to be buried there? Contact us.
