Schlossberg 7
98617 Meiningen
Germany
A synagogue was initially established in the manor house of the ducal domain estate in the street "Am Schloßberg". In 1819 the rooms used for this purpose were cancelled by the ducal chamber. Thereupon the services were held in a Jewish private house.
In 1822 the Jewish community built a synagogue. It was destroyed in the great fire of Dreißigacker on May 13, 1867, to which 145 residential buildings fell victim. As a result, the exact location is unknown. The Jewish school was also completely destroyed in the fire of 1867.
A rebuilding of the synagogue and the Jewish schoolhouse did not take place, especially since the Jewish families at that time had already predominantly left the village and had largely settled in Meiningen.
