The stele in St. John's Monastery was erected in 1988 in memory of the Jewish community. It bears the inscription, "In memory of the Jewish community and its synagogue, where it gathered from 1787 to 1938." Originally, the stele stood at Apollonienmarkt, where the synagogue was located until 1938. But there it was often defiled. Therefore, it was moved to the zoo. Today it stands in the courtyard of the Johanniskloster.

The house of the Blach family was built around 1700 after the city fire in 1680. The brothers bought the house in 1882 to live there and to establish their own leather shop, having already run a business under the name "Wallmann und Blach-Lederwaren en gros" at 8 Ossenreyerstrasse since 1876. In 1915, Felix Blach took over the management of the business with his son Carl-Phillip Blach, as his brother Julius Blach retired for reasons of age. Friedrich Blach inherited the Stralsund house in 1921. He was the youngest son of Julius and Selma Blach.

The Jewish cemetery in Stralsund was acquired by the Stralsund synagogue community in 1850 and expanded in 1912. During the National Socialist regime, the Jewish community was forced to sell the cemetery to the city in the early 1940s. Until today, the cemetery remained intact. In 1956 it was transformed into a memorial site. In this process the gravestones were moved, as  it is still visible today. On 19.08.1997 the state association of the Jewish community of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern took over the cemetery. The last renovation took place between 2000 and 2008.

The Cohn family came to Stralsund in 1890. There, Martha and Siegfried Cohn took over the men's and boys' wardrobe business from Max Keibel, where Siegfried had previously worked as manager. A family clothing business was thus established in Ossenreyerstrasse. After the birth of his two sons Heinrich and Ernst, Siegfried Cohn passed away. Martha Cohn nevertheless continued to run the business and expanded it with a tailor store. After both houses were rebuilt, they were used as commercial and residential buildings by the Cohn family. This created an important textile business in Stralsund.

Hanover's Jewish community had grown considerably since the beginning of legal equality in 1842. Since the historical cemetery was no longer sufficient, it acquired a plot of land in the garden area far outside the city, today located in the middle of Hanover's Nordstadt. The new cemetery was solemnly consecrated in 1864. Its buildings on the street side - sermon hall, administration, mortuary and prayer hall - followed designs by the Jewish architect Edwin Oppler, who also built Hanover's New Synagogue at almost the same time.

The Old Jewish Cemetery in the Nordstadt, not far from the Christuskirche, offers an astonishing picture: a hill in the middle of the residential area, on it hundreds of old gravestones under tall trees, a walled island of the dead.

The Jewish cemetery "am Judenknapp" existed around 1800, only from 1824 death registers were kept.

He was probably founded around 1750. The last burial took place in 1939. At that time  Miriam Ruhstädt was buried on the Judenknapp, but was no longer allowed to have a gravestone.

The cemetery is located on Moosspringstrasse directly behind the entrance to the old paper mill at the edge of the forest. 

Today's district of Worms has a centuries-long independent tradition, at times as a Free Imperial City, which is still reflected in the townscape.

Jews certainly lived here before 1444, but in 1470 all Jews were expelled from the Electoral Palatinate, thus also from Pfeddersheim. Only with the end of the 30-year war in 1648 there is again concrete information about the presence and activity of Jews. However, a Jewish religious community was not founded until 1834. Until then, Jews oriented themselves either to Worms or to Grünstadt, where they attended the synagogues there.
