In Passau existed perhaps already at the end of the 1st millennium a Jewish community, which is mentioned documentarily however only 1204 and then again and again, so e.g. 1210, 1244 or 1260. They possibly buried their deceased in Regensburg. This is indicated by a document of 1311, according to which the Counts of Hals, keeper of Vilshofen, offered to escort the Passau Jews to Straubing for a fee of half a Passau penny and one pound of pepper for each dead person or one pound of pepper for each living person.

A section in the community forest of Oberkotzau bears the designation "Judenbegräbnis", which perhaps refers to a former cemetery. A late medieval Jewish community could be supported by the fact that in 1444 Emperor Frederick III granted the lords of (Ober)Kotzau permission to hold a weekly market and "das sy auch juden daselbst gehaben mugen" (Regesta Imperii, Chmel No. 1812). Further evidence of the existence of a synagogue cannot be verified at present.
