The annex, better known as the "Judengasse Museum", contains the foundations from homes that existed in the Jewish Ghetto. These date from 1462 onwards. The Ghetto was opened up in the early 1800's when Frankfurt was occupied by the French. The synagogue that was located there, was burned down on 9 Nov. 1938 and they have remnants from that.
