Jewish History in Württemberg

Jews were not allowed to live and work permanently in Württemberg from 1498 to 1805. In 1828 for the fírst time a Jewish law was passed. Accordingly two Jewish centers arose in Ludwigsburg and in Stuttgart. However, the rights were revoked in 1848. Jews were finally fully recognized in 1861 and received equal rights in 1864.
