History
The Home of Peace Cemetery land was purchased by Congregation B'nai Israel of Sacramento and donated to the Sacramento Benevolent Hebrew Society. The cemetery is a wedge shaped parcel and approximately 10-acres in size. Many of the graves from the precursor Chevra Kaddisha Cemetery (established in 1850), and were moved to Home of Peace Cemetery around the time of its opening in 1924. In a public ceremony in November 1925, Congregation B'nai Israel of Sacramento and Mosaic Law Congregation worked together to consecrate the land.
