The small brick synagogue was built in 1860 in what was then Wormditter Street. On the occasion of the opening, the "Ermländische Aussteuerverein" was founded by those present to support poor Jewish girls. After the turn of the century, the small community could no longer afford a rabbi. The cult officials changed frequently. In 1938 the synagogue was sold to the local Baptist congregation. Nevertheless, during the Reichspogromnacht there was devastation inside the building. During the fighting in the spring of 1945, the building was destroyed, and the remains were later leveled.
