Memorial for the Jewish Community of Deutschkreutz

The Jewish community of Deutschkreutz/Zelem was founded in 1671 and existed until the National Socialists brutally destroyed it in 1938 and expelled its population. Since July 2012, two metal stelae, which are located on the main street in front of the „Goldmarkhaus“, commemorate the destroyed Jewish community of Deutschkreutz. While one memorial stone contains an inscription, the second stone displays, via a site plan, the formerly most important sites of the religious community. Both stones are illuminated from within at night. The establishment is the initiative of Michael Feyer from Vienna.
