In Erfurt, a part of the medieval Jewish cemetery was excavated in 2013.

The results are therefore of great importance beyond the site itself. They are a first step towards tracing the migrations of the Jews from late antiquity to the late Middle Ages and researching today’s genetic diseases of Ashkenazi Jews from their origins.
