Rahumäe Cemetery (Estonian: Rahumäe kalmistu) is a cemetery located at Rahumäe in Nõmme District, Tallinn, Estonia. This municipal cemetery was established in 1903 on 29 hectares of land to meet the needs of the growing population of Tallinn. A number of congregations are present including a Jewish section established in 1911. This forested cemetery is notable for its many works by famous sculptures and chapels present within its grounds.

The Jewish section (also called New Jewish Cemetery) was established in 1911. Its area is about 1 ha. In 2019, five unknown perpetrators pushed over five gravestones and spray painted a swastika nearby.
