An evening about Jewish history in Franconia, connecting knowledge and the present
At RW21 Bayreuth, Professor Günter Dippold will guide through the early centuries of Jewish life in Franconia on January 18, 2027. The lecture series opens a historically informed view on presence, persecution, expulsion, and cultural continuities in the region.
Historical depth instead of mere retrospection
Dippold situates the Jewish history of Franconia until the end of the early modern period and connects regional history with a broader cultural-historical horizon. This creates a reading in a broader sense: not a literary evening in a narrow format, but an intellectual event with clear language, precise analysis, and high narrative tension.
RW21 as an appropriate place for a focused literary and educational experience
The RW21 is regarded as an open, barrier-free cultural and educational center. Seminar room 3 provides the framework for a calm, focused reading atmosphere, where historical reflection and lively author encounters meet closely. Its location on Richard-Wagner-Straße makes getting there uncomplicated, and the infrastructure is prepared for visitors with restrictions.
A lecture with social relevance
The topic of Jewish life in Franconia touches on questions of memory culture, cultural identity, and historical responsibility. This is where the special literary-cultural quality of this evening lies: it not only opens knowledge but also perspectives on the present and social discourse. Those interested in history, culture, and regional education will experience a substantive lecture here.
Practical information for attendance
The event starts at 6:30 PM and lasts until around 8:00 PM. The admission fee is 7.50 euros. Registration is required, and remaining spots will be allocated on-site. Thus, the evening is aimed at a broad audience of adults, students, guests, and history-interested visitors.
This format promises an engaging evening between historical insight, cultural education, and focused lecture art. Anyone wanting to understand Jewish history in Franconia firsthand should not miss this date in Bayreuth.
