Jewish teacher house - David Weil

Hans Georg Döberle, who was elected Hochberg's first mayor in 1821, built the house in 1824 and sold it to the Rosenwirt Abraham Seligmann in 1831, since he had acquired the former rectory at Hauptstr. 10 from Gabriel Dreyfuß in 1830 and moved there. Seligmann sold the house in 1832 to the Jewish village school teacher David Weil, who died in 1847. His widow Babette Weil continued to live in the house with seven children until 1859, from which time the name "Jewish Teacher's House" became established. In 1859, the Jewish merchant Tobias Bernheimer purchased the house. After his death in 1883, it passed to the merchant David Israel, who died in 1914. He was married to Pauline Israel née Falk, a sister of Adolf Falk, the last Hochberg Jew. Pauline Israel (1860-1925), her brother Adolf Falk and his wife Caroline were the last three Hochberg Jews in the 1920s. The "Israele" was known in the village for her love of children and her sense of humor. The daughter Julie, living in Bad Cannstatt, sold the house in 1926 and was able to emigrate to England around 1939, where her brother Gustav was already living.
