Sopots Jews initially fell under the jurisdiction of the Wejherowo community, where they also attended the synagogue. After the establishment of the Synagogue Community in the Gdansk region, land for a cemetery and synagogue in Sopot was purchased in 1913. Burials began here after the First World War and were discontinued in 1939. After the war, followers of the Jewish faith were buried in the municipal cemetery. The Jewish cemetery was listed as a historic monument of Sopot. In the middle of the cemetery, there is an impressive plaque with an inscription in the Hebrew language.
