Experience Jewish History in Tüchersfeld

The Sunday tour at the Franconian Switzerland Museum Tüchersfeld on July 26, 2026, follows the paths of Jewish history in Franconian Switzerland. In the historic Jewish courtyard, beneath the striking rocks of Tüchersfeld, this city tour combines cultural heritage, local history, and an impressive discovery experience at an authentic memorial site.

In the Footsteps of the Jewish Courtyard

The tour traces the arc from the expulsion of the Jews by the Romans through flourishing and persecution in the Middle Ages to life in the Jewish courtyard and the end of rural Judaism in Tüchersfeld in the 19th century. This connection of architectural history, religious history, and regional memory culture makes the tour a special cultural enrichment.

A Museum in a Unique Location

The current Franconian Switzerland Museum was once the Jewish courtyard of Tüchersfeld. The buildings once housed a Jewish community; the original preserved synagogue from 1763 is still open to visitors today. The exhibition on Jewish life conveys important life stages such as Brit Mila, weddings, and Bar Mitzvah, as well as selected religious annual celebrations.

Between Rocks, Half-Timbering, and Remembrance

Visitors to Tüchersfeld experience not only history but also the unique atmosphere of the place: historical walls, Franconian architectural culture, and the impressive backdrop of the twin rocks. The Sunday tour is suitable for young and old and combines knowledge transfer with a calm, sensory walk through one of the most distinctive cultural sites in Franconian Switzerland.
