Complete profile
90

Already in the Middle Ages there was a prayer room or a synagogue (called 1313). 
 
In the 18th century a prayer hall may have been established again. Until 1855 this was in a building in the Keutelstraße. In the middle of the 19th century, the construction of a new synagogue had become urgently necessary due to the rapidly increasing number of Jewish residents. The community was able to acquire a plot of land "Im Entenpfuhl" in 1854 and presumably began building a new synagogue in the same year. 1855 took place the consecration of the synagogue.
