Jewish Museum Emmendingen
The opening of the Jewish Museum Emmendingen took place on April 13, 1997. The museum was established in the restored mikveh building. In the house was once the apartment of the synagogue servant. In the basement, the listed immersion bath is still preserved (built between 1837 and 1843 and used until around 1900).
Salomon Ludwig Steinheim Institute for German-Jewish History (Essen)
The Salomon Ludwig Steinheim Institute has been based in the former Rabbi's House in Essen since May 2011. The Institute was founded in 1986 and is named after the Jewish physician, religious philosopher and scholar Salomon Ludwig Steinheim. The Institute researches German-Jewish history from the early modern period to the present and cooperates in research and teaching with the University of Düsseldorf. The Steinheim Institute offers regular courses at the University of Duisburg-Essen.
Nelly Sachs House (Düsseldorf)
The Nelly Sachs House was built between the years 1969-1970 and opened in 1970. The house was commissioned by the Jewish community of Düsseldorf as a home and parents of the returned members of the community. The Nelly Sachs House is named after the Jewish poet Nelly Sachs and is adapted to the needs of the house, usually aging residents. The house has 100 barrier-free rooms, a synagogue, a library and a dining room where Kosher food is served. Consultation hours with the rabbi are held in the house, as well as Jewish holidays and Shabbat are celebrated.
Heidelberg University of Jewish Studies
As early as 1971, the then State Rabbi of Baden, Nathan Peter Levinson, had the idea of founding a training institution for rabbis, cantors and religion teachers. It was to be modeled on the "Lehranstalt für die Wissenschaft des Judentums" in Berlin - which was forcibly closed by the Nazis in 1939 - and thus revive Jewish scholarship in Germany.
Alsberg department store (Bochum)
The Alsberg department store, today called Kaufhaus Kortum, is built in the years 1913-1921 by the Cologne department store company of the Jewish Alsberg brothers. The department store opened in 1921 and was at that time the first department store in Bochum with 31 shop windows and 64 sales departments.

In the course of the Aryanization in 1933 the name Alsberg disappeared from the public. The department store was now named after the doctor and poet Karl Arnold Kortum. The house remained in the ownership of the Alsberg family until 1938.
Jewish cemetery in Erp (Erfstadt)
The Jewish cemetery in Erp was occupied from about 1868 to 1914. There are only seven gravestones left. The cemetery plot was originally 31.34 Ar in size.
Since 1952, the cemetery has been owned by the Jewish Trust Corporation. In February 2004, the cemetery was desecrated. A memorial stone is present. The cemetery is located about 100 meters south of the main road 265 in the direction of Weiler in der Ebene. It is freely accessible, as it is not (anymore) fenced.

Old cemetery (Frankfurt am Main)
Old Jewish Cemetery
The first burials in the Jewish Cemetery Battonnstraße can be dated by a few gravestones to the year 1272. This makes it one of the oldest of its kind in Europe. In Judaism, the cemetery is considered an eternal resting place, and for this reason the graves may neither be dissolved nor the gravestones removed. When the capacities there are exhausted, he must be closed in 1828 with almost 7000 graves.
Grindelviertel in Hamburg
The Grindelviertel developed into the Jewish center of Hamburg in the 19th century. Several institutions such as synagogues, Talmud Torah schools and cemeteries for German-Israelite or Portuguese-Sephardic communities led to a strong growth of the Jewish population in Hamburg. At the time of National Socialism, approximately 25,000 Jews lived here. During the Reich Pogrom Night in 1938, most of the synagogues and community facilities were destroyed. From 1941, the remaining Jews who had not managed to escape were deported to Eastern Europe and murdered there.
Department store Landauer (Augsburg)
In 1906 Hugo Landauer had opened a store with manufactured goods in Augsburg, which later became the department store of Landauer Bros. Goods stores of the Landauer company existed in several cities, the parent company was located in Stuttgart; the store in Augsburg, however, was considered the most important. During the Nazi era, the department store was forcibly "Aryanized".
