Worms
Rhineland-Palatinate
Since July 2021, the serial SchUM sites in Speyer, Worms, and Mainz have been part of the UNESCO World Heritage List. These exceptional historical and archaeological monuments, along with the writings of significant Jewish teachers and rabbis, are considered the cradle of Ashkenazi Judaism and are uniquely well-preserved testimonies to a living Jewish tradition.
To communicate this historical inheritance, the city of Worms is planning to build a World Heritage Visitor and Information Center in the Neumarkt, a central area in Worms’s inner city. Until the center’s completion, events will be held regularly at the SchUM-Lab, an empty storefront beside the Neumarkt.
