Description : Founded in June 1614, Beth Haim (Hebrew for 'House of Life') is a Portuguese-Israelite (Sephardic) cemetery; it is the oldest Jewish cemetery in the Netherlands. Beth Haim covers 10 acres and has more than 28,000 graves. Prior to its founding, Sephardic Jews were buried in Groet, near Alkmaar . Between 1616-1634, the graves in Groet were cleared and reburied in Beth Haim. The cemetery was expanded in 1663, 1690 and 1691. The Ashkenazi or High German Jews of Amsterdam also used Beth Haim until 1642; in that year they established a cemetery near Muiderberg.
