Möhlstrasse 12a: Chief Rabbinate

In October 1945, the Chief Rabbinate was established at the Central Committee of the Liberated Jews in Bavaria. The two Lithuanian rabbis Samuel A. Snieg and Samuel Ros were at its head. In addition, Rabbi Baruch Leiserowksi was on the council representing the urban district of Munich. The council was responsible for all religious matters and appointed representatives in all DP camps.
