Jewish cemetery that was part of what was the neighborhood before the GM factory was built. Michigan law states no interred bodies may be moved, thus the cemetery must be preserved, even though everything around it was levelled to build the factory. It is open for visitors two days a year.

  • Your information is ALL Wrong! Some interments were in fact MOVED to Clover Hill Park Cemetery in Birmingham, MI which controls and maintians Beth Olam. My husband works there, he is the one who opens Beth Olam twice a year.
