About this event

The House of Life is a new visitor experience at Willesden Jewish Cemetery. For a small price we are offering volunteer-led tours about some of the fascinating residents of the cemetery. The only Jewish cemetery Registered as a Park or Garden of Special Historic Interest, Willesden is a remarkable survival, telling the stories of the first ethnic minority to settle in Britain in modern times. It is where many notable people have been buried, from scientist Rosalind Franklin to Tesco founder Jack Cohen.

Tours are approx. 75 minutes long, starting at the War Memorial.

A limited amount of parking is available on site.

Wheelchairs can be provided upon request.

No dogs, with the exception of guide dogs.

Donations appreciated.
