I am Christian Repkewitz, was born in 1980 and live in Altenburg (Thuringia). In 2004, I started to investigate Jewish life in Altenburg and the surrounding towns and villages. In 2014, I published a first documentation containing 200 stories of Jewish individuals and families from Altenburg; a significantly expanded version is currently in preparation. I also do guided tours through the "Jewish Altenburg" periodically. In 2015, I was awarded the German Jewish History Award by the Obermayer Foundation for my work.
