Complete profile
90

The Jewish religious community in Soest had a synagogue built in Osthofenstraße in 1822 and subsequently consecrated it. Until then, the services of the community were held in private houses. One of these prayer rooms was located in the house of the Stern family in Thomästraße.

In 1860, the congregation had a schoolhouse built next to the synagogue in Osthofenstraße. Sixty years later, the synagogue was expanded to make room for worshippers who came to Soest from the nearby region.
