UNESCO Welterbe – die jüdischen Monumente in Worms

In July 2021, the cities of Worms, Speyer, and Mainz were awarded the title of World Heritage by UNESCO for their SchUM sites. The cities are considered the cradle of Ashkenazi Judaism. Discover the Jewish monuments in Worms and their significance for cultural heritage during this guided tour. You will visit the oldest preserved in situ Jewish cemetery in Europe, "Heiliger Sand" (outdoor tour), as well as the former Jewish quarter in Judengasse with the synagogue (outdoor tour). The monuments illustrate Jewish life in the city and, together with religious tradition, the connection of the SchUM communities in every respect.
