Paul Rothenberg was the third community leader of the Jewish community.

Oscar Schlesinger was the second community leader of the Jewish community as well as chairman of the synagogue committee.

Otto Schlesinger was the first community leader of the Jewish community.

First there was a prayer room in each case (already in the 16th century, then again in the 18th century). 

In 1880 the foundation stone for a new synagogue could be laid. The construction was financed by donations (see above report on the death of M. S. Falkenstein). Construction was supervised by Baurat Edwin Oppler from Hanover; he had shortly before built a synagogue in Hameln almost identical to the synagogue in Bleicherode. Master mason Schirmer from Bleicherode carried out the work. On June 1, 1882, the synagogue was consecrated by Professor Heidenheim, a rabbi from Bleicherode. The architecture was essentially characterized by neo-Romanesque forms.

In the November pogrom of 1938, the synagogue was burned down. The "Aryanizations" of the last Jewish businesses were completed by March 1939. In connection with this, there were four suicides of Jewish persons, including the weaving mill owner Felix Rothenberg (born on October 19, 1939). At the beginning of 1939, 46 Jewish persons were still living in the town; at the beginning of the war (September 1939), according to secret reports of the mayor, there were still 30 persons. In September 1942 the deportation to the East began.

The cemetery is located in the south of the city, above the Schustergasse, accessible via a forest path branching off from the street Vogelberg 
. The Jewish community of the town was able to establish a cemetery as late as the 17th century (around 1660), for which they had to pay (1728) an annual tax of 12 groschen. The cemetery area covers 18.00 ar. and is terraced. The wealthier Jews of the town were obviously buried on the lower four terraces. There are about 220 graves. The southern part of the cemetery adjoining the Bleichenröder forest merges into forest.

A prayer hall or synagogue was originally located in a house called "Judenbau", which was originally an inn and was inhabited by Jewish families. In 1842 a synagogue was built and inaugurated in 1846. The synagogue was located in the northern part of the massive, two-story building, adjoining it on the first floor was the apartment of the teacher and prayer leader. On the second floor was the Jewish school. The prayer hall had a women's gallery on three sides.

At first there was probably a prayer hall. In 1852 an "old synagogue" and a school are mentioned. They were located in the immediate vicinity of the old Jewish residential area (at the Zehnthof). In 1854 a new synagogue with a schoolhouse next to it was built and solemnly consecrated in the same year. The Jewish community had to raise about 7,000 guilders for the representative building. Around 1860, 45 children were taught in the Jewish school. In the synagogue there was a Torah shrine with six Torah scrolls. During the November pogrom in 1938 the synagogue remained undestroyed.
