Following a £24,000 restoration, the historic Penzance Jewish Cemetery was rededicated at a ceremony attended by more than 60 people.
The Grade II listed cemetery, owned by the Board of Deputies, was established in the 1740s and is thought to be the best preserved of its type in the country. The rededication was the culmination of a six-year restoration campaign.
At the ceremony, Colonel Edward Bolitho, Lord Lieutenant of Cornwall, stressed the importance of the cemetery as a reminder of an important period in the town's history.
Board of Deputies president Jonathan Arkush said afterwards: "It is a source of great pride that this hidden jewel has been restored to its former glory, both as a reminder of the community's history and to honour those who are buried there." The project funding included £14,000 from the National Lottery.
