Hands-on history: the secrets of Endingen and Lengnau

Why do some houses here have two entrances? What exactly is a mikveh? And why is the old schoolhouse so much more than just a schoolhouse? Visitors on a tour of Endingen or Lengnau can learn about how Jews and Christians lived side-by-side for centuries. Here, stories of synagogues, mikvehs and other Jewish buildings come to life.
