Obernai (Oberehnheim), an imperial city of Alsace, attests a Jewish presence as early as the fourteenth century, a period during which families fell victim to the persecutions of the Black Death. A modern community reconstituted itself there in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, leaving behind a synagogue and consistorial registers preserved in the archives of the Bas-Rhin.

The days of this book

This book bears no memory day yet. The sources that document Obernai give years and centuries, never a day; we do not invent one.
