Rothschild stands for one of the most powerful banking families - representative of the fate of many wealthy Jewish families before World War II. Mayer Amschel Rothschild left the Frankfurt ghetto in 1756 as a 12-year-old and learned the profession of dealing in coins and banking. In 1811 he transferred a substantial sum to Frankfurt, in return for which the Jewish community received civil rights. Mayer's striving is not only aimed at maximizing profits, he also contributes to overcoming discrimination against Jews. Under the Nazis, however, the Rothschilds became the target of anti-Semitic propaganda, and to this day anti-Semitic conspiracy theories are sparked by the name "Rothschild".
