Dörzbach: 16th January 1592
Jewish presence in Hohenlohe, today a district in Baden-Württemberg, dates back to the Middle Ages and continued until the Holocaust. The Jews of Künzelsau, as well as other neighboring communities such as Dörzbach and Laibach benefitted from their location, between Rhinish territory and Austrian and Bohemian lands.
