In Worms, all you have to do is open the gate to enter the cemetery.
There are more than 2000 grave stones, the earliest from 1076.Shortly after entering you can see two stones which are usually covered with small stones and notices. These are the graves of two important Rabbis, Rabbi Meir and his pupil Alexander ben Salomon Wimpfen, from early 14th century.
When you have the chance visiting here, don't stop near the entrance but walk further down. Some of the gravestones from 19th century are beautiful to look at and it's a very special atmosphere.
Male visitors are asked to cover their head when walking there.
