Rosenbaum's leaf hut

Today, Rosenbaum's Tabernacle is a reminder of the almost hundred-year history of the former Jewish community in Zell am Main. This was shaped above all by the work of Reb Mendel Rosenbaum and his family. The family established a Talmud school in Zell as well as a yeshiva, synagogue and mikvah at the Judenhof.

In the middle of the 19th century, the Jewish community had around 70 members. The community was dissolved around 1908 and the last Jewish residents left Zell am Main around 195.

As it remained almost untouched by the destruction of the war, it is a unique monument to the Feast of Tabernacles and therefore to Jewish culture and history.
