Who was Alexander Haindorf?
Born in Lenhausen in 1784, died near Hamm in 1862.
The namesake of our residential complex in Paderborn mastered his path as a reformer and physician despite much opposition. Intended by his parents to become a rabbi, his grandparents wanted him to pursue a career as a merchant after their early death. Supported by the head of the Jewish community, he was the first Jew to complete his A-levels at the local grammar school and studied medicine, psychology and philosophy. Just one year after graduating with a prize-winning dissertation, he habilitated, but was not appointed professor for religious reasons. From then on, he worked as a neurologist and became involved in the Jewish enlightenment and emancipation movement, with the aim of merging Jewish and European culture. He regarded education as a driving force for social advancement and equality. Jewish elementary schools and qualified teacher training were intended to promote social participation and acceptance by the majority society. In 1825, he founded the “Association for the Promotion of Crafts among the Jews and for the Establishment of a School for the Education of Poor and Orphaned Children and the Training of Future Jewish School Teachers”, from which the “Marks-Haindorf Foundation” emerged in 1866.
