Association Synagogue Berlin-Lichtenberg (1935-38)

The synagogue of the Israelite Association Lichtenberg was founded on 23.6.1935. After the synagogue of the Israelite Association Lichtenberg no longer offered sufficient space, this had to change its location ändern. As a result, the factory building at Frankfurter-Alle 56 was rented. The synagogue now had room for about 600 people. The counseling center of the Jewish Women's Center was located in the adjoining rooms. Furthermore, a reading room for children, the branch of the library of the Jewish community and a Jewish youth center were established. In 1936, members of the Orthodox Synagogue Association of Berlin Lichtenberg were also included in the services. On 9.11.1938, the National Socialists destroyed the synagogue and destroyed about 20 Torah scrolls and numerous pieces of furniture. After these events, there was no Jewish life in the district of Lichtenberg.

The synagogue building was probably destroyed during the Second World War. Today there s a car repair shop and a playground in place of the building.
