Julius Wolbach was appointed in 1896 as the first Jüdischer Bürger in the college of the municipality representatives of the city Nördlingen. In 1906 he was succeeded by Salomon Gutmann. The appointment to this body can be seen both as a sign of the integration that had occurred in the meantime and of personal esteem. Julius Wolbach was elected one of the 24 municipal representatives after the municipal elections in December 1893. The election of Salomon Gutmann as a Gemeindebevollmächtigten took place at the election in December 1905.
