Germany - Jewish-Medieval Heritage of Erfurt

"Located in the medieval historic centre of Erfurt, the capital city of Thuringia, the property comprises three monuments: the Old Synagogue, the Mikveh, and the Stone House. They illustrate the life of the local Jewish community and its coexistence with a Christian majority in Central Europe during the Middle Ages, between the end of the 11th and the mid-14th century."

The Erfurt Mikveh is a Jewish ritual bath of medieval origin in the old town of Erfurt, Germany. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.Thanks to Marcel of Germany for resending a replacement postcard as the first postcard never arrived. Appreciate it.
