Bonn
Rhineland (Germany)
Bonn, a city on the Rhine in western Germany, had a medieval Jewish community (home in the twelfth century to the liturgical poet and chronicler Rabbi Ephraim of Bonn). In the modern era its university was where Samson Raphael Hirsch, later the leader of German Neo-Orthodoxy, studied alongside the future Reform leader Abraham Geiger.
