Jewish community in the state of Bremen

With almost 1100 members, the Jewish community in the state of Bremen is one of the larger Jewish communities in Germany. Until 2000, like the communities of Cologne, Frankfurt, Hamburg and Berlin, it formed an independent state association within the Central Council of Jews in Germany, which represented the Jewish community in Bremen. Since 2000, the Jewish state association of Bremen has also represented the Jewish community of Bremerhaven, so that the communities in Bremen and Bremerhaven form their own state association that includes the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen.
