history

The family seems to have its origin in Oppenheim am Oberrhein ( Rheinhessen ), between Mainz and Worms . At that time it was customary to use the place name as an epithet for one's Jewish name . In the cities of Worms, Mainz and Speyer there were already Jewish communities in the 10th and 11th centuries, in Oppenheim a small community was mentioned in the royal tax register from 1241. There was a Judengasse in 1285, in which those residents had to settle. When the city was pledged to the Archdiocese of Mainz between 1300 and 1353 , a pogrom against the Jews in Oppenheim broke out. The residents destroyed the synagogue in 1349 because they believed Jews were the cause of the plague . From the 16th century onwards, many of them had a house name to distinguish them, for example "(Golden) Schwert", the house was built around 1538 in Westgasse in Frankfurt am Main, it was inhabited by the Oppenheimers until 1700, or "White Lion" ", Built by Joseph Oppenheim around 1573 not far from the aforementioned, it was inhabited by the Oppenheimers until 1760, as was" Zur Weißen Gans ", built in 1707 in Judengasse as the residence of Jacob Oppenheim.

When Worms was laid to rubble during the conquest of the city by the French in 1689, most of the houses in Judengasse were attached to the city wall, these residents were the first to be affected when the French invaded. They fled to the surrounding villages and especially to Frankfurt am Main, together with the residents of Speyer and Oppenheim, as their cities were also attacked. With the end of the Palatinate War of Succession , negotiations began with the city of Worms to enable the return, it was agreed that the Jews would be exempt from house interest for ten years from 1697 in order to be able to rebuild their houses, and serfdom of the Jews should also To get picked up. On June 7, 1699, the return was made possible by the sealed document.

          1. Juda Löb (Löw, Lew) Oppenheim "To the white lion" († 1633), married to Gela, daughter of Mordechai von Wasungen, whose wife, Gela's mother, was the daughter of Abraham von Schleusingen, his wife Gütle. Her uncle, Abraham's brother, was Hans Cunrath , who converted around 1528 and worked closely with the converted Leib Oppenheim († 1574 in Mainz), who was now called Paulus Renatus . These family relationships gave considerable cause for discontent among Frankfurt Jews.
          2. Amschel Oppenheim "To the donkey"
          3. Meir Oppenheim (* around 1580, † around 1640) "Zur golden Kante" converted to Christianity on December 21, 1606 and took the name Johann Daniel Lichtenstein . His wife Brendle (Brendlin) "To the Edge" did not convert, but their children were baptized. She demanded a divorce from him , he refused this and the disputes lasted until after 1620, as Lichtenstein demanded a share of 13,500 guilders for himself from the joint property with his wife, it was a sum of 18,000 guilders . However, this was denied to him and only 5000 guilders were granted. In May 1609 a syndic of the city complained about Lichtenstein, because he began to slander respectable Jewish citizens and did not spare his wife either. As a result, in 1609 he had to serve a sentence of six weeks "on the Katharinen Tower with bread and water" . Shortly afterwards it became known that he had publicly beaten a Jew in the Römer before the audience , so a fine of 50 guilders was imposed on him and he was released on condition that he cease to be "dissolute". In November 1609 he declared that he wanted to accept citizenship in Speyer and asked for notarizations from the city. Since the divorce was still pending, Brendle filed a lawsuit with the council on April 19, 1610. In the absence of a legal basis, four non-Jewish lawyers were called in as advisors; they should also decide to whom the now 5500 guilders should be handed over to protect their family. Brendle now threatened to turn to the judges in Mainz. Lichtenstein feared not being able to implement his demand, so in November 1610 he sued his “former Jewish housewife” and her relatives as well. The dispute did not lead to an agreement in the following years either, as the city lords neither had trade relations with the financially strong Jewish families wanted to disturb nor upset the Christian community. However, Meir Oppenheimer / Johann Daniel Lichtenstein fell away from the Christian faith again after the baptism, became Jewish again and fled to Poland . His brothers Mosche “Zum Schwert” and Juda Löb “Zum Weißen Löwen” were assumed to have been the escape helpers. They fled the threat of torture to force a confession and appealed to the Supreme Court , whereupon the council issued a judgment that forced Moshe to pay 9,000 guilders and Löb 3,000 guilders. After this judgment, Meir was baptized again in 1626. → continue with Lichtenstein
