The Jewish cemetery was established in 1830. The last burial took place in 1920.
After the end of World War II, most of the tombstones were stolen. Monika Krajewska and Jan Jagielski in their study "Notes on the condition of Jewish cemeteries in Poland" described the cemetery in Pyskowice after its visit at the turn of the seventies and eighties: "The cemetery next to the road on a small scarp. Several dozen to 100 tombstones, mostly matzevot, but not Only. The wall of a large tomb of the Dr ... er family with the back of the road, made of black granite, including columns, some parts taken away, torn letters, carved matzevot, including a relief showing a winged hourglass. Fresh traces of tombstones being taken away. overgrown with trees, from small to large and branchy. Unfenced ".
To this day, on the area of 0.6 ha, about 150 tombstones have survived, the oldest of which dates back to 1841, with inscriptions in Hebrew and German.
In 1988, on the initiative of local authorities, cleaning works were carried out in the cemetery.
In September 1988, a monument was erected on the mass grave of at least 5 Jews who were shot by the Germans in Pyskowice in January 1945. The inscription on the monument reads in Polish and German: "Here lie murdered Jews by the Nazis".
Currently, the cemetery area is unfenced, a few tombstones are signed, and the funeral home is completely devastated.
