City walk Mühlhausen
The city tour of Jewish history Mühlhausen tells of the first settlement of Jews in the city around 1250 and describes the difficult coexistence of Jews and Christians in the late Middle Ages. In the 19th century, a larger Jewish community was established in Mulhouse, as evidenced by the still standing backhouse synagogue, one of the few remaining synagogues from the 19th century. Furthermore, the city tour shows at various places in the city center and at buildings that are still standing in part, the free spaces that were granted to active Jewish entrepreneurs since the 17th century.
City walk Ilmenau
Whether already in the Middle Ages Jews*Jewesses lived in Ilmenau, is not completely documented; presumably, however, around 1428 members of the Jewish community lived in the city. Certainly documented is the presence of some Jews*Jewesses in the first half of the 16th century. They are commemorated by the Judentor (Jewish Gate) built in the middle of the 16th century and the Judengasse (Jewish Street) leading to the market, which was still called Judengasse in the early 19th century.
Antiquarian bookshop Isaak Hess
Isaak Hess (1789-1866) opened an antiquarian bookshop in his hometown of Lauchheim in 1817, which he moved to Ellwangen in 1838. The antiquarian bookshop soon became one of the most important of its time and was continued after Hess' death by his sons Moritz and Sigmund. The building at Schmiedstraße 6 also served as a residence.
Hess also became an early board member of Lauchheim's Jewish community and played an important role in the emancipation of Württemberg's Jews in the 19th century.
Isaak Hess Way
Isaak Hess was born in Lauchheim on May 26, 1789. He attended a rabbinical school in Fürth and then worked for several years as a tutor and bookkeeper. In 1817 he founded his own antiquarian bookshop in Lauchheim. In 1838, he moved his antiquarian bookshop to Ellwangen and expanded it with an assortment bookstore. The emancipation efforts of the Württemberg Jews were of particular concern to him. He was a member of a government commission that prepared a law on the political and civil rights of Jews in Württemberg.
Judengässle
Among the known villages and smaller towns in Baden Württemberg, where Jewish settlements existed for shorter or longer periods in the 16th or 17th century, was the village of Röttingen.
Excerpt from the "Description of the Oberamts Neresheim" from the year 1872, last line in the place description "Röttingen": "Jews were once also in Röttingen, still a village street is called the Judengasse."
