At the General Cemetery in Harlingen there is a Jewish cemetery in a closed part. The cemetery is reached after a gatehouse. In addition to the many graves, a monument has been placed on a brick wall with a Star of David. The monument represents a tree of life.
At the bottom left is a plaque with the 46 names of the murdered Jews.
At the bottom of the plaque is the text:
