A surviving place and a privileged witness to history in Strasbourg.

A ritual bath of medieval Judaism, the Mikveh of rue des Charpentiers was rediscovered in 1984 during construction work, but its construction dates back to between 1200 and 1260. Present in Alsace since Antiquity, Jews were driven out of Strasbourg during the 1349 pogrom and saw their places of worship closed or destroyed. The place is therefore a survivor and a privileged witness to history. A 500-litre basin of water from groundwater, in a nine-square-metre cellar in which you can walk down a spiral staircase, niche walls to place candles and a small room used as a cloakroom: that's what you can discover today.
