The post-war Jewish community in Halle

At the time of the invasion by Soviet troops, only 49 Jews were still living in the city on the Saale and the surrounding area. Shoah survivors decided to return as early as the summer of 1945. Many of the "displaced persons" now arriving in Halle had survived the Nazi era in concentration camps, for example. While some were passing through, others were looking for a new home here in view of their destroyed homes.
