Jewish community Talheim

The Jewish community in Talheim in the district of Heilbronn in Baden-Württemberg came into being in 1778, after only isolated Jews had previously lived in Talheim, through the admission of a few Jewish families to the western part of the Talheim Oberschloss, which thus became known as the Judenschloss. The Talheim Jews formed an independent community from 1849, they had their own synagogue and from 1857 until the First World War also their own schoolhouse. The community was wiped out in the course of the persecution of the Jews during the National Socialist era. The dilapidated synagogue collapsed in 1952 and was demolished a little later.
