Jewish-Christian Simultaneous School
The Christian-Jewish simultaneous school in Grünstadt existed since 1870. Previously, there was a Jewish denominational school until 1869. Classes were taught jointly by a Jewish and Christian teacher. In 1875 however, when the vacancy for a Jewish teacher was to be filled, difficulties arose with the Bavarian school authorities, which the Grünstadt city council successfully resisted. The position was re-advertised and finally filled by Benjamin Freudenthal who was to teach at the school for 35 years thereafter. The school was in operation until 1910.
