The area was sparsely populated and lay outside the city wall, making it particularly suitable as the site of Berlin\u2019s first Jewish cemetery. Its remains can still be found today on Gro\u00dfe Hamburger Stra\u00dfe.<\/p><p><span class=\"pink\"> A synagogue was not permitted until 1714,<\/span> built on Heidereutergasse.
