Guided Tour by Karl-Heinz Stadtler

Versal Buchstabe Anyone who walks through Vöhl with their eyes open will still find traces of Jewish life. Names like those of Abraham Katzenstein and Selig Frankenthal have been carved into the door of an old blacksmith's shop alongside those of Christian farmers; there's the inscription in Hebrew characters above the door of a house that belonged to the Schaumburg merchant family in the 19th century; and, of course, there's the Jewish cemetery in Herzingsgrube and the former synagogue.
