Commemorating the Jewish Community of Würzburg
Valley of the Communities
The name of the Würzburg Community engraved on the wall of the Valley of the Communities at Yad Vashem
The Valley of the Communities at Yad Vashem is a site in which the names of over 5,000 Jewish communities that were destroyed or barely survived in the Holocaust are engraved on its 107 walls.
Each name recalls a Jewish community which existed for hundreds of years; for the inhabitants, each community constituted an entire world. Today, in most cases, nothing remains but the name.
