When the Nazis came to power in 1933 there were about 500,000 Jews in Germany in the sense of members of a Jewish congregation. There were also about a further 300,000 people who were part Jewish. By 1939 the overall number had fallen to about 550,000 as a result of emigration.

When the Nazis came to power in January 1933 the maximum number of Jews in Germany using the Nazis' broad definition of a person with one or more Jewish grandparent(s) was under 850,000 out of a total population of about 61 million. (Obviously, these figures relate to Germany in the frontiers of 1933).

The number fell already in 1933.
on the eve of war it was between about 505 000 and 512 000.
