Event: Purity above the Tauber

Rothenburg has a long Jewish history dating back to the 12th century. A special historical site is located in Judengasse, where Jews and Christians lived side by side in the 15th century: house no. 10 is a "monument of national importance". This late medieval building with a mikvah and a panelled room was taken into the care of KULTUR ERBE BAYERN 2019 and extensively restored after standing empty for many decades and threatening to fall into disrepair.

Rothenburg tour guide Karin Bierstedt and Dr Sybille Krafft, both members of the board of Kulturerbe Bayern e.V., will accompany us on a tour of medieval Rothenburg, tracing the Jewish history of the town and showing us Judengasse 10. The Mayor of Rothenburg, Dr Markus Naser, will welcome us at the town hall.

There will be an opportunity to have lunch together.
