Novo Cemetery

The Novo Cemetery is a Grade II listed[1] Sephardic Jewish cemetery located within the grounds of Queen Mary University of London in Mile End in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets.

As the nearby Jewish community grew in size the Velho began to fill up.

Historic England added it to the register of listed buildings in 2014, as a Grade II.

[3] One of the most notable people buried in the cemetery is the Rabbi and Kabbalist Shalom Buzaglo, also known as the "Mikdash Melech."

He fled persecution by the sultan and settled in London, where he wrote and published numerous works on kabbalah, including the first systematic commentary on the Zohar.
