Hills of Eternity Memorial Park, also known as Giboth Olam,[1] is a Jewish cemetery founded in 1889, and is located at 1301 El Camino Real, in Colma, California.[2][3] This cemetery is owned by Congregation Sherith Israel of San Francisco.[4] It is one of four Jewish cemeteries near the city of San Francisco and it shares an adjacent space next to the Home of Peace cemetery (also a Jewish cemetery, and also founded in 1889).[2] At Hills of Eternity Memorial Park, Jewish burials are traditionally done side-by-side, which means there is a need for larger grounds and ground maintenance.[2]
History
Emanu-El Hart (or the "Old Jewish Cemetery") was built in 1847 at Gough Street and Vallejo Street in San Francisco; by 1860 the graves were relocated to an area that is now Mission Dolores Park and this served as a cemetery for both the Congregation Emanu-El and the Congregation Sherith Israel.[5][6] When the city of San Francisco started to see dramatic growth in population; it was decided to move the cemetery outside of the city to Colma and they established Home of Peace Cemetery and Hills of Eternity Memorial Park with each cemetery served a different congregation.[6]
