Why?
Today the largest Jewish communities in Germany are in Berlin and München (Munich). Worms and Speyer, on the other hand, are famous for their Jewish history: together with Mainz they form the ShUM cities (SchUM-Städte), a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2021. But the communities there are small today.
