Max-Samuel-Haus, Jewish cultural center in Rostock, Germany

The Max-Samuel-Haus operates as a foundation and meeting place within a historic villa, featuring exhibitions about Jewish history and cultural heritage in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.

The building, constructed in 1912 by architect Paul Korff, belonged to businessman Max Samuel until 1939, when it was repurposed as a laboratory during World War II.

The foundation organizes readings, concerts, lectures, and exhibitions that highlight Jewish personalities and stories from Mecklenburg-Vorpommern through its dedicated library and resources.

The center maintains a specialized library focused on Jewish history, offers educational programs for youth, and provides access to 14 publications about regional Jewish heritage.

The foundation manages the Stolpersteine project, placing commemorative stones in Rostock's sidewalks to mark the former residences of Holocaust victims.
