History of the Jews in Leipzig : ウィキペディア英語版 | History of the Jews in Leipzig Leipzig has historically been a centre for Jews. In the 1250s there is mention of Jewish life in Leipzig.〔"Or Zarua" Isaac ben Moses of Vienna〕 ==History== Leipzig's central location attracted Jewish traders from all over Europe to the Trade Fair. However, the Jewish community as an officially state-recognised organisation was established only in 1847 and only by then Jews were allowed to settle in Leipzig without any restrictions. Though most Jews were traveling merchants, in 1935 - less than a century after its establishment - the Jewish community in Leipzig consisted of 11,564 members,〔AJC Archives〕 making it the sixth-largest Jewish community in Germany and the largest one in Saxony. The city's mayor from 1930 to 1937, Carl Friedrich Goerdeler, although being national-conservative, was a noted opponent of the Nazi regime in Germany. He resigned in 1937 when, in his absence, his Nazi deputy ordered the destruction of the city's statue of Felix Mendelssohn. On Kristallnacht in 1938, 553 Jewish men were arrested,〔Association of Jewish Refugees〕 centres of Jewish communal life were destroyed as well as one of the city's most architecturally significant buildings, the 1855 Moorish Revival Leipzig synagogue. The deportations from Leipzig began on January 21, 1942 until February 13th 1945〔Association of Jewish Refugees〕 when the last 220 Jews were deported to Theresienstadt. By 1945 there were only 15 Jews remaining in the city at which point 200 came back from Theresienstadt to form the Jewish community once again.〔Records of the Leipzig Jewish Community 1422-1997〕 In 1989 the community numbered 30 members, but as a result of the immigration from the former Soviet Union, it began to grow. In 2012 the Jewish community numbered 1300 members.〔Records of the Leipzig Jewish Community 1422-1997〕
