Travel south (&#8216;push&#8217; the map up) through Darmstadt to Mannheim, and then to what is now Karlsruhe. Turn east towards Pforzheim. Now is a good time to switch to \u2018Satellite\u2019 view. Pforzheim is situated right at the northeast corner of the Black Forest. Now follow the eastern slope of the Black Forest south. You will be passing the sites of former Jewish communities in \u00a0\u201cWeil der Stadt,\u201d Horb, Sulz, and Rottweil. Once you see Waldshut-Tiengen, it is time to zoom in and track back. Some fifteen kilometres northeast of Tiengen, in the Wutach Valley, lies the little historic town of St\u00fchlingen. You might have missed it without magnification. Just for fun switch back to the map-view. Now you see that St\u00fchlingen sits flush at the border to Switzerland, right across from Schleitheim. You will meet it again later in the story. You have just travelled one of the major north\u2013south medieval trade routes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"Standard\">From the sixteenth to the middle of the eighteenth century, the town of St\u00fchlingen and its surroundings were home to a flourishing Jewish community, which was finally expelled in 1743. According to legend, the evicted Jews of St\u00fchlingen were among the early Jews in Endingen, Lengnau, Gailingen, Randegg, and Tiengen. The first two communities formed the early core of Swiss Jewry.<\/span><\/p>\n<!-- cp_caption_start --><span class=\"captioned_image aligncenter\" style=\"width: 700px\"><span id=\"attachment_2972\"  class=\"wp-caption\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2972\" src=\"http:\/\/www.stuehlingen.online\/Book\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Map_2.png\" alt=\"Town Plan\" width=\"700\" height=\"519\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stuehlingen.online\/Book\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Map_2.png 700w, https:\/\/www.stuehlingen.online\/Book\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Map_2-300x222.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/span><small class=\"wp-caption-text\">Figure 2. Reconstructed Old St\u00fchlingen Town Plan<\/small><\/span><!-- cp_caption_end -->\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"Standard\">Shaped like a squeezed trapeze, the town is situated on a plateau a few hundred feet above the Wutach Valley floor and was originally encased by a wall that provided the backing for the outermost ring of houses. Two gates, one on either end of the main tho\u00adrough\u00adfare (Schloss\u00adstras\u00adse), con\u00adtrolled ac\u00adcess. The town was flan\u00adked on both si\u00addes by shal\u00adlow ra\u00advi\u00adnes des\u00adcen\u00adding to\u00adwards the val\u00adley, which pro\u00advi\u00added a mo\u00addicum of defence against invaders before the introduction of gun powder. In time of need, the ravines could be flooded, thus acting as substitutes for a moat.<span class=\"Footnote_20_Reference\"><span class=\"Footnote_20_anchor\" title=\"Footnote: Brandeck, Geschichte der Stadt, 143.\"><a id=\"body_ftn1\" href=\"#ftn1\">1<\/a><\/span><\/span> However, by the seventeenth century this area served as gardens for the inhabitants. Along the southwest corner of the town were tanning and dyeing pits fed by the little creek at the bottom of the ravine. In all likelihood, this creek also provided running water for the ritual bath of the Jews, who shared that southwest corner of the town with the tanners. The proximity of tanners and Jews was customary in the Middle Ages.<span class=\"Footnote_20_Reference\"><span class=\"Footnote_20_anchor\" title=\"Footnote: Gilomen, \u201cSp\u00e4tmittelalterliche Siedlungssegregation.\u201d&lt;PG. #?&gt;\"><a id=\"body_ftn2\" href=\"#ftn2\">2<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"Standard\"> For reasons of convenience, by the seventeenth century most houses provided direct access to their extramural backyards, thus breaching the security of the town wall. The outermost boundaries shown in the town plan representing seventeenth-century St\u00fchlingen (fig. 2) are mere retaining partitions shoring up the garden plots. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Footnote\"><span class=\"footnodeNumber\"><a id=\"ftn1\" class=\"Footnote_20_Symbol\" href=\"#body_ftn1\">1<\/a><\/span>Brandeck, <span class=\"T20\">Geschichte der Stadt<\/span>,<span class=\"T22\"> 143.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Footnote\"><span class=\"footnodeNumber\"><a id=\"ftn2\" class=\"Footnote_20_Symbol\" href=\"#body_ftn2\">2<\/a><\/span>Gilomen, \u201cSp\u00e4tmittelalterliche Siedlungssegregation.\u201d 7.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Where is St\u00dchlingen?
