Fewer than 1,000 Jews now live in Utrecht and in its environs. According to Heintz, no more than 150 to 180 of them are members of the congregation at any one time. Jews first began to settle in Utrecht at the beginning of the 14th century, but were expelled after being accused of poisoning wells during the plague of 1349. The Second World War devastated Utrecht’s Jewish community. Maybe 1,000 — or one-fourth of 4,000 who once lived there — survived, and many of those who did soon left, Heintz said.
