Le dernier testament: chronique de la communauté juive de Lauterbourg

Front Cover
Editions Coprur, 1997 - History - 128 pages
Chronicles the history of the Jewish community in the Alsatian village of Lauterbourg from its founding during the Roman period until its decline after World War II. Antisemitism was most pronounced during the medieval period (pp. 15-24), the period preceding the French Revolution (pp. 30-40), and its aftermath (pp. 50-53). The gradual decline of Lauterbourg's Jewish community (numbering 58 Jews in 1900), which commenced after World War I due to assimilation, was exacerbated by the emigration and deportation of the community following the Nazi occupation of Alsace.
