The Jewish Community of Wuerzburg and Lower Franconia or Israelite Community of Wuerzburg has over 1000 members today. The history of the Jews in Würzburg begins in the Middle Ages. After several expulsions in the early modern period, a new community was founded in the 19th century. Immediately after the end of the Second World War, about 20 members of the pre-war community returned from the concentration camp Theresienstadt. They formed a new Jewish community, which experienced a large increase from 1991 onwards with immigrants from the former Soviet Union.
