An edition of the famous Heidenheim German-Hebrew Haggadah, published in the Land of Israel around 1900 by the Association for the Austro-Hungarian, Bohemian-Moravian Community of Jerusalem (Palestine).
Heidenheim's German-Hebrew hagadah became the standard hagadah in householdsacross Germany for much of the 19th and early 20th Century. Wolf Heidenheim (1757–1832) is among the most recognizable Jewish publishers and exegetes of the 19th century. In 1798 he received a license to establish a German and Hebrew press in partnership with Baruch Baschwitz. In 1800 Heidenheim began the publication of his most famous work, the nine-volume edition of the mahzor, Sefer Kerovot (Roedelheim, 1800–02), which went through numerous printings. The work included the first pure German translation (in Hebrew characters) of the liturgical poems for the festivals, a Hebrew commentary and a literary historical introduction. Heidenheim devoted great care to typographical setup as well as to the restoration of the correct text of the prayers.
