history lecture with Prof. Treml in Rosenheim - a fascinating insight

On July 11th at 7 p.m., the renowned historian Prof. Dr. Manfred Treml in a special lecture in the parish hall of the Evangelical Redeemer Church in Rosenheim. The topic of his illustrated lecture is the history of the Jews in Bavaria, a multifaceted and often underestimated chapter in Bavarian history.

Prof. Treml, known for its comprehensive exhibition on the history and culture of the Jews in Bavaria in 1988, sees Jewish history as an integral part of Bavarian history. He places special emphasis on cultural development over more than a thousand years that goes far beyond a sacrificial history.

The lecture spans an arc from medieval Judaism to country Judaism to emancipation in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Not only are heights illuminated, but also dark chapters such as disenfranchisement, displacement and annihilation during the Nazi era that greatly decimated Judaism in Bavaria.

After this dark period, Prof. Treml also takes a quick look at the post -war period, which was shaped by emigration and the new building of Jewish communities. This multifaceted representation reflects a broad spectrum of Jewish history in Bavaria and provides important insights into the past and present.

The event is not only intended for members of the Historical Association of Rosenheim, but also opens its doors to interested guests. Entry is only € 5 for non-members and promises a fascinating insight into the complex history of the Jews in Bavaria.
