The Jewish cemetery in Płoty was founded, most probably, already before 1800 (or, according to other sources, about 1846.

We may assume it is the right date because for many years that cemetery was used by the neighbouring Jewish communities, among others, the Golczewo (Gülzow) and Gryfice kehillas, which only after 1812 set up their own cemeteries. Before that date the deceased were to be transported to Stargard Szczeciński to a large Jewish cemetery, which was one-day long journey. The cemetery in Płoty was located in the south-western part of the town, a bit on the side of Gartenstraße (former Ogrodowa Street), east of a small wood called Falkenberghain back then, and south of Kreuzstraße.

The necropolis could be entered from Gartenstraße’s side. To get to there a small park with trees had to be passed, at the end of which a minute house called „Herberge“ (German for „Shelter“) was located. The very cemetery was situated on a hill, and its surface both before and after the war was 0.16 ha. The last known burial took place in 1940. During the war the cemetery was destroyed and no tombstones are preserved to the present day.

For a long time the terrain of the old necropolis was left unattended, and nobody was interested in looking after it, but in August 1998 the whole surface was used for construction site of a housing estate. Presently there are no remains of the old Jewish cemetery which used to be there.
