Since 1799, the Jewish community in Boizenburg had a synagogue in the small Wallstraße. In 1864, the synagogue, which was originally a half-timbered building, was completely rebuilt and received a new brick facade. The consecration of the synagogue took place on October 1, 1864. The synagogue was sold as early as 1892 due to the decline in the number of congregation members. In 1934, the city took over the house and used it as a local museum until the 1980s.

The Jewish Welfare Center was founded in 1867 as an Israelite asylum for the sick and infirm. In the 1890s it was decided to build a new building on Ottostra&szlig. The inauguration took place on 19.2.1908. At the instigation of the medical director, Dr. Auerbach, the facility met the most modern requirements. During WW1, the asylum provided up to 200 hospital beds. The asylum managed to survive the crises of the Weimar period. The necessary modernizations due to the enormous burden of the war years could only be financed gradually.
