CZ: Podle písemných záznamu byl hrbitov založen, stejne jako janovická synagoga, v roce 1723. Je ale pravdepodobne starší, nebot nejstarší citelný náhrobek pochází z roku 1705. Na ploše 1515 m2se dochovalo okolo 260 náhrobku, z období baroka, klasicizmu i moderních. Na hrbitove je památník 24 místních židovských obcanu, kterí se stali obetmi nacizmu. Hrbitov je volne prístupný, ohradní zed je opravena.

ENG: According to written records, the cemetery was established, as well as synagogue in Janovice, in 1723. But it is probably older, since the oldest legible gravestone dates from 1705. On the area 1515 m2 around 260 gravestones have been preserved, from the Baroque, classicism to modern. There is also the memorial to 24 local Jewish citizens, who were victims of Nazism. The cemetery is freely accessible, the wall is repaired.
