Re: [Cz-L] Turkenbrunnen

Hardy is right that very many European cities have their Judengasse.
Mostly or always, these are the streets to which Jews were confined,
while they lived in those cities. These are the ghetto streets in
which Jews
lived for hundreds of years.

In Czernowitz the ghetto existed only for 9 weeks, the rest of the time,
Jews lived in all parts of the city.

When Edgar first published the Czernowitz Address directories,
I thought that it would be interesting, to tabulate the streets on which
most Jews lived. I have not done this tabulation.
But in my own case, my great-grandparents when they first moved to
Czernowitz,
lived on the Hauptstrasse, then they moved to the Tempelgasse, then
to the Karolinengasse and my grandparents moved to the Schmiedgasse
and my parents to the Blumengasse.
