The Jewish community of Maßbach

Jewish cemetery of Maßbach

Maßbach's Jewish community goes back to the 15th and 16th centuries. Century back. In 1446 there was a dispute over the rights of Jews and Christians between the Lords of Maßbach and Wilhelm von Schaumberg. There were also mentions of Jews in the 16th century, namely in 1556, when the Jews living under the protection of the Counts of Henneberg were expelled. In contrast, the Jews under the protection of Messrs. Von Maßbach were obviously allowed to remain. In 1687, a source named 29 Jews under the protection of the Counts of Hatzfeldt. In 1710 there were 18 Jewish households on site with a total of 90 people. Between 1800 and 1816, 27 houses were named that are said to have been owned by Jews. In 1766 a Talmud Torah school was founded in Maßbach. In the 19th century the percentage of the Jewish population fluctuated between 6.7% and 17.9%. In 1910 there were only 67 Jews left in Maßbach, at that time 5.2% of the total population.

There was a synagogue in the community, the Jewish elementary school (until 1920, then a religious school), a ritual bath and from 1902 a cemetery. Before that, the deceased von Maßbach Jews had to be buried in Kleinbardorf. Until 1920 there was a Jewish elementary teacher, then a religion teacher who acted as a prayer leader and slaughter at the same time. In the mid-1920s there were still 31 Jewish community members, 2.3% of the population. The Jewish community leaders at that time were Samuel Eberhard, A. Friedmann, F. Heidelberger and A. Frank. In the school year 1932/33 there were four school-age Jewish children on site. In 1933 there were still 34 Jewish people living in Maßbach.

“From the perspective of shame and guilt, it is therefore an obligation not to forget the fate of our fellow Jewish citizens. In their former synagogue, here in the Maßbacher, such a contribution should be made. "
