Synagogue at Trinity Square (Landshut)

The synagogue in Landshut was one of the necessary facilities of the small Jewish community in Landshut. The synagogue as well as the mikvah (the ritual immersion bath) adjoined the residential houses of the Jews, which were located on the Hofberg. From 1450 the situation of the Jews in the town worsened until their expulsion. The synagogue became a Christian property and was transformed into the Salvator Church. The square where the synagogue stood was from then on called Trinity Square.
