The Jewish Cemetery in Teplice-Sobedruhy is one of the oldest in Bohemia outside of Prague. Burials were as early at the late 17th century. The cemetery is located in the formerly independent town of Sobedruhy (Soborten in German) that is now a district of the adjoining city of Teplice (Teplitz in German). The cemetery is undergoing restoration efforts and the small Jewish Community in Teplice recently installed and dedicated a fence and gate to protect the cemetery area. Teplice-Sobedruhy was at one time a predominantly Jewish village. The cemetery and the old Jewish Community House on Stare ulice (Judengasse) are the only physical reminders of the Jewish Community to remain. All but a few Jewish families left in 1938 when the area came under Nazi control. The clock from the former clock tower of the old synagogue is now in the local Teplice museum.
