The present synagogue Worms goes back to the synagogue built in 1034. From this first building the founder's inscription has been preserved - today it is built into the outer wall next to the main portal. The synagogue was built as a hall with two columns (two naves) and a bima in the center. It was the first building of this type and set the trend for later synagogue buildings. In the same way synagogues were built in Regensburg (1210/1220), Prague (1260s), Vienna (1294) and Krakow (15th century)

At first there was probably a prayer room. In 1725 a synagogue could be built. For more than 200 years it was the center of Jewish community life in the village. It was a building with a size of 13,8 m x 9,8 m with a hipped roof. In the men's prayer room it had last 90 seats, on the presumably three-sided circumferential women's gallery it had 50 seats.
