Common questions about Jewish burial in Knoxville

?Is there a Jewish cemetery in Knoxville, TN?▼
Yes — 2 are documented in Knoxville: New Jewish Cemetery; Temple Beth-El Jewish Cemetery.
?Which Jewish cemeteries near Knoxville are selling plots?▼
None of the cemeteries on this page has yet confirmed public plot sales with EverJewish. Most listings still read "details not yet confirmed" — ask the cemeteries from this page and their answers come to you.
?What does a Jewish burial plot cost near Knoxville?▼
Cemeteries rarely publish prices, and a grave is several lines — the plot, opening and closing, perpetual care, the monument and its setting — that differ by section and by membership. On EverJewish you tell the Jewish cemeteries near Knoxville once what you're looking for and each answers you with its own availability, requirements and prices; no calls until you're ready.
?What should a family confirm before choosing a Jewish cemetery near Knoxville?▼
Whether plots are available now and to whom (members, the public, or pre-sold only); who may be buried there, including a non-Jewish spouse and section rules; the total cost in writing; the cemetery's rules for the monument; and which funeral homes it works with. Jewish funerals are not held on Shabbat or festivals, and customs vary between communities — the family's rabbi decides what is right for them.
?Who do I contact about burial or plots?▼
Contact Temple Beth-El directly for inquiries about eligibility, availability, and arrangements. Temple Beth-El Jewish Cemetery is co-owned by Temple Beth El and Heska Amuna Synagogue. No dedicated cemetery office details are published online.
