During the November pogrom of 1938, fire was set in the synagogue building by unknown SA men. The Mühringen fire department, alerted by neighbors, was able to extinguish the fire, which had been set in the area of the Torah shrine, a short time later. Torah shrine as well as part of the benches and windows were destroyed by the fire. Some of the cult objects could be saved by the Jews still living in Mühringen. In June 1943, the synagogue became the property of the Horb tax office, which rented it to the Mauser arms factory for a warehouse of rifle stocks.
