Hiking

After the pogroms in the cities, there were many rural Jews who survived by trading in livestock. The hatred and prejudices that resulted from this were and are widespread. Open violence broke out in particular from 1933 onwards. The fact that this synagogue still exists after 9/11/38 is due to the fact that the building is in the middle of the closed development and a support association has taken on its preservation. The Jewish community of Grossen Buseck no longer exists after the Shoah. Perpetrators such as Globke etc. were never held accountable.
