The small community of Hofgeismar near the town of Kassel in Hesse has opened a Jewish department in a local museum which largely concentrates on documenting the history of the area. Jews lived in Hofgeismar and in neighboring communities from 1356 through 1933. Today, no Jews are known to live in this remote, mainly agricultural area.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
