The castle in Laudenbach belonged to the estate of the Voite von Rieneck. The noble lords exercise the right to protect Jews and allow Jews to live in the small former servants' quarters of the castle. The living conditions are very bad.The cottages are small and overcrowded.

In this courtyard, writes a Würzburg newspaper in 1798, "every corner is filled with Jews." The owners of the castle let the Jews settle there mainly because of the considerable protection money. In the vernacular, the area is called "Judenhof".

Today the cottages are privately owned and renovated, they have not lost their old character. Like the castle, they are listed as historic monuments.
