Former Jewish residence (Wanfried)

The former Jewish House in Wanfried, Windgasse 5 is located in an area of the town where Jews already lived in the times of the landgraves (area: Windgasse, Steinweg, Kleine Gasse, Vor dem Schloß).

The house in Windgasse 5 was built by a Jewish merchant in 1620.

To the right of the building was once the synagogue. In 1937, the town of Wanfried expropriated the synagogue.
