City walk Göppingen-Jebenhausen
The Hohenstaufen town of Goeppingen, located about forty kilometers east of Stuttgart in the scenic foothills of the Swabian Alb, may be known to many as a busy industrial center on the Filstal Railway to Ulm. To the south, in the direction of the autobahn, is the old farming and working village of Jebenhausen. First mentioned in a document in 1206, it now belongs to the urban area of Göppingen with a good 4,200 inhabitants.

Jewish Museum (Steinbach am Glan)
The Jewish Museum in Steinbach am Glan, located in the town center on Lindenstraße, documents the history of Jews in the community as well as in the region. In the museum itself, there are display boards showing events of local Jewry. Display cases house objects that were used for religious rituals. The museum is open twice a month between 3 and 5 pm. From December to February the museum is closed. Opening also possible on request.
Mikvah in the community center (Munich)
The mikvah is located in the basement of the main synagogue Ohel Jakob in the community center of the Jewish Community Munich and Upper Bavaria.
Rashi House (Worms)
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.
Oldenburg
The first documented mention of Jews in Oldenburg was in a council resolution from 1334, which describes a conflict between the count and the magistrate regarding the repeated demands of the merchants for the expulsion of the Jews. In the town charter of 1345, the protection of the Jews was enshrined with restriction of their professional activities to money trading. This legal status remained until the end of the 18th century. Until the Danish period (1667-1773), there is little evidence of Jews residing here.
