Sint Oedenrode
Jews
first settled in Sint Oedenrode during the second half of the
eighteenth century. The new arrivals included a trader in cloth, a
butcher, and a market vendor. Beginning in 1831, the Jews of Sint
Oedenrode met for prayer in the home of one of their numbers. A
synagogue was inaugurated in the village in 1866; a ritual bath was
opened one year later.
During the third quarter of the nineteenth century, the Jews of
Sint Oedenrode joined with those of Schijndel to form a single
community. For a time thereafter, the Sint Oedenrode synagogue was
used by the Jews of both places. In 1872, the Jews at Schijndel
split away to form an independent community of their own. The Sint
Oedenrode community maintained an women's society and a burial
society. It did not have a cemetery of its own but buried its dead
at the Jewish cemetery in Schijndel.
The Jewish community at Sint Oedenrode was officially dissolved in
1941 and merged into the Jewish community at Oss. The synagogue was sold and
its contents moved to Amsterdam. Only a few of the small number of
Jews who remained in Sint Oedenrode on the eve of the Second World
War survived the wartime genocide.
