A District with Deep Jewish Influence
Kriegshaber was long an independent location and developed into an important living space for Jewish families since the 16th century. The walk tells of the living conditions, everyday life, and the biographies of the people who have shaped the neighborhood. Thus, history becomes not abstract but very concrete, close, and vividly experienceable.
