The synagogue in Meseritz was built after a fire in the Jewish quarter and is a successor building of the original synagogue. It was built in the late classicist style. Since the synagogue came through the Progromnacht unscathed, but was repurposed as a storage room, it was preserved, but the condition of the building fabric was so bad due to lack of preservation, the Jewish community had to give up the synagogue due to scarce financial resources. Therefore, a private investor converted it into a commercial building. Nevertheless, numerous objects of the Jewish community and its synagogue have been preserved. Among them are brass windows from the 17th century, the altar structure with four candelabra from the 18th century, signs and bells of the Torah, records and minutes books. The building has been a protected monument since 1976. Further here (Andrzej Kirmiel über die Synagoge).
