Centuries of Jewish Life in a City
Fürth has long been regarded as an important center of Jewish religiosity in Southern Germany. Hebrew printing houses, the Talmud school, and other places of learning made the city regionally known in the 17th and 18th centuries. The tour addresses this history and connects it with the visible traces in today's urban landscape.

A Path Through Preserved Testimonies and Remembrance
On the tour, participants will encounter a place of remembrance, beginning with the memorial stone for the synagogue and reclaiming Fürth's Jewish past in the public space. The route refers to the Old Jewish Cemetery, former Jewish houses, and other relics that survived the destruction of the Nazi era. This makes the city tour an intense event experience with historical depth.
