Home of Peace Cemetery, also known as Navai Shalome,[1] is a Jewish cemetery established in 1889, and is located at 1299 El Camino Real in Colma, California.[2] The cemetery contains the Emanu-El Mausoleum, owned by and serving the Congregation Emanu-El of San Francisco.[3] It is one of four Jewish cemeteries near the city of San Francisco and it shares an adjacent space next to the Hills of Eternity Memorial Park (also a Jewish cemetery, and also founded in 1889).[4]

History

Levi Strauss mausoleum at the Home of Peace Cemetery

Emanu-El Hart (or the "Old Jewish Cemetery") was built in 1847 at Gough Street and Vallejo Street in San Francisco; by 1860 the remains were relocated to an area that is now Mission Dolores Park and this served as a cemetery for 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 serving a different congregation.[6]
