The construction of a new synagogue was decided on March 29, 1880 by the congregational meeting of the Jewish community Leer (see Hensmann 2005, p. 26). In 1883, after the building permit was finally granted on November 23, 1883, the construction was then started and lasted until about the beginning of 1885. On May 28, 1885 the synagogue was solemnly inaugurated by Oberlandrabbiner Dr. Buchholz with a ceremonial act, for which numerous guests of all denominations appeared, and was in use from that time on (cf. Hensmann 2005, p. 32.36)

The synagogue in Unteren Masch Street was built between the years 1896-1872, after the synagogue in Prinzen Street was in poor condition and the number of members of the Jewish community had increased sharply. The building has 200 seats. In 1895 the synagogue was consecrated after it was expanded to 450 seats due to influx of Jews from Göttingen.
