Warren Hills Overview – updated 24th August 2025

The first Jewish grave at Warren Hills is dated 22nd Feb 1968.

A new format to search and find gravestone records has been launched in August 2025. This new format provides family members to register and add pictures and stories to create a memorial of their loved ones.  In the future we hope to enable visitors to donate towards the upkeep of the cemeteries. Go to this link.

The cemetery is located on the Bulawayo Road about 12 kms out of Harare in a southerly direction.  There are a number of other cemeteries of other religions and denominations directly adjacent to the Jewish cemetery. A few kilometers away is the Zimbabwe National Heroes Acre memorial where key members of the Zimbabwe leadership from both government and the pre-independence struggle are buried.
