Kirchberg, by Ernst. (* 14.Jh. - † after 1379); rhyming chronicler and illuminator of the Middle Ages who worked in Mecklenburg; Mecklenburgische Reimchronik (Kirchberg - Chronik im LHAS); ; According to the synagogue destroyed in Güstrow in 1330 and the "Joden Kerkhove", which was located in front of the Hageböcker Tor until 1621, it can be concluded that the first inhabitants of Güstrow already included a larger number of Jewish merchants who had moved to our area after the persecutions in western Germany during the Crusades and from the land of Brandenburg. In addition also registers in the LHA Schwerin. - according to Mastaler
