The Jewish cemetery is located next to the landscaped promenade in the eastern part of the Roman Forest, on the archaeological site of the Roman castrum Aquae Balissae and the medieval fortress Kamengrad.
The Jewish cemetery was registered in the Register of Cultural Property in 1973. It was founded in 1860, when the synagogue in Daruvar was also built. Jews moved to the area of Daruvar mostly from Burgenland and kept inns and shops in the town and its surroundings. They were the most numerous between the two world wars when there were more than two hundred of Jewish people.
In the cemetery there is a memorial erected for 260 victims of fascist terror and 160 gravestones – large and small marble and stone slabs, which rise above the greenery and have inscriptions in Hebrew, German and Croatian.
