History of the Jews in Austria The history of the Jews in Austria probably begins with the exodus of Jews from Judea under Roman occupation. Over the course of many centuries, the political status of the community rose and fell many times: during certain periods, the Jewish community prospered and enjoyed political equality, and during other periods it suffered pogroms, deportations to concentration camps and mass murder, and antisemitism. The Holocaust drastically reduced the Jewish community in Austria and only 8,140 Jews remained in Austria according to the 2001 census, but other estimates place the current figure at 9,000, 15,000 and 20,000 people.

The Association branched out from the Reich Representation of German Jews ("Reichsvertretung der Deutschen Juden") established in September 1933. The "new" Association was an administrative body concerned predominantly with the coordination and support of the emigration and forcible deportation of Jewish people, subject to the Reich government's ever-changing legislation enforced by the RSHA ("Reichssicherheitshauptamt"). The legal status of the new organization was changed on 4 July 1939 on the basis of the Nuremberg Laws, and defined by the 10th Regulation to the Citizenship Law issued by the "Reich's ministry of the Interior". The Association assumed the so-called old "Reichsvereinigung der Juden in Deutschland", which was the name under which the Reichsvertretung der Deutschen Juden ("Reich's deputation of German Jews") had been operating since February 1939.
