Urspringen synagogue photographs, approximately 1977
Scope and Contents
Photocopies of photographs and captions of the Urspringen Synagogue and homes along Judenstrasse after they were greatly damaged in 1942 by the Nazis. The synagogue was completely restored many years later as a memorial to the Jewish people who were murdered in the Holocaust. No Jews live in Urspringen today. Though Heilner family members were killed in the Holocaust, the Heilner family had no ancestors living in Urspringen when the Jewish sector was invaded by Nazis. From the destruction of the synagogue until its restoration, it was used as a shed. Dated approximately 1977.
