The former Mikwenhaus in the Judenstraße 26, already built in the 16th century as a half-timbered building, was acquired in 1766 by the Jewish community of Halberstadt. In the basement, the community mikveh with its own spring was established. Until 1879, the baroque community synagogue between Judenstraße and Bakenstraße was accessible via the courtyard gate. After a first renovation of the mikvah in 1855/56, the cellar and first floor were rebuilt in 1891/92 into a representative bathhouse with cross-ribbed vaults, heating, hot water (also to feed the mikvah), bathtubs and toilets.

The former cantor's house in Bakenstraße 56 dates from the end of the 18th century. Directly behind it stood the baroque synagogue of the Jewish community donated by the Halberstadt court factor Berend Lehmann since 1712. The entrance was initially on the east side (from Judenstraße), but was moved to the west in 1879 during renovation and the addition of a new reception hall. From then on, the gateway of the cantor's house on Bakenstraße served as the new main entrance.

In 1819, Maier Strauß (1783-1856), who came from Wollenberg (today Bad Rappenau) and had lived in Hochberg as a "Schutzjude" since 1815, acquired the house from Adam Dohl. Maier Strauß worked as a cattle dealer and bed salesman and was "Jewish church warden" in Hochberg from 1833 to 1853. His son Seligmann Löw Straus worked in his father's business and bought the house from his father in 1841. In 1842, Seligmann Löw founded the bed feather and quilt factory "Straus & Cie" in Ulm, which he moved to Bad Cannstatt in 1862.
