Donora Cemetery

~ Ohav Sholom Cemetery ~

Jewish families that lived in Donora, and possibly other nearby towns, used the Donora Ohav Sholom cemetery as the final resting place for their loved ones.

The Jewish cemetery is located a outside of town, after passing the bridge on the left, bear right and follow the highway up the hill to the end. Then turn left onto Route 837 and along that road, the cemetery is located a short distance on the left. There is fence around the cemetery and a red brick building inside the cemetery. Park above the cemetery. The cemetery is very well maintained.
