In the first half of the 19th century, the synagogue had become too small for the steadily growing congregation, despite the extensions made. So in the 1840s it was decided to build a new building in place of the previous synagogue in F 2,13. In 1851 the old synagogue was demolished. In July 1851, work began on the new building. Numerous Mannheim and foreign companies were busy with the work, especially the artistic design.

The first documented mention of Jews in Oldenburg was in a council resolution from 1334, which describes a conflict between the count and the magistrate regarding the repeated demands of the merchants for the expulsion of the Jews. In the town charter of 1345, the protection of the Jews was enshrined with restriction of their professional activities to money trading. This legal status remained until the end of the 18th century. Until the Danish period (1667-1773), there is little evidence of Jews residing here.
