The Rashi House, which is used today among other things as a city archive and Jewish Museum, dates back in its origins to the late Middle Ages. Originally it served the Jewish community of Worms as a community center, among other things as a hospital, dance and teaching house, as well as a home for the elderly. Walls from the first building have been preserved in the cellar vaults.

The Rashi House belongs to the ensemble Synagogue Garden and is thus part of the medieval Jewish area in Worms. The medieval cellar walls are part of the serial application of the SchUM sites Speyer, Worms and Mainz as UNESCO World Heritage Sites in 2020/21.
