A synagogue first existed in the Middle Ages. It was first mentioned on the occasion of a renewal of the building in 1479. It stood in what is still called Judengasse in the southern quarter of the Old Town, probably at its southwestern end towards Petersgasse, on the site of today's houses Judengasse No. 25 and 27. It had three street fronts. Under or next to it was the ritual bath. As early as 1500, the city had King Maximilian I confirm ownership of the synagogue in the event that Jews would sooner or later cease to live in Schweinfurt.

In 1911/1912 the new synagogue building at the Brixener Hof in Schäffnerstraße was started; The synagogue in Untere Bachgasse 3 had to be closed in 1907 because of danger of collapse. The entire property was demolished in October 1938. A memorial plaque has commemorated the former synagogue since the beginning of 2012. It bears the inscription: "Former synagogue - At this location in the tower of the Gothic Wollerhaus was the Regensburg synagogue from 1841 to 1907. In 1938, the medieval property was demolished." The memorial plaque was financed by a private donation.

With a letter of July 29, 1874 to the Israelite religious community, 32 members of the congregation asked to hold their own services in the prayer room of the community center according to the traditional rite. However, this was refused, as it was feared that the unity of the congregation would be dissolved. Thus, the first services (since New Year - Rosh Hashanah - 1874) were held in a rented hall.

The synagogue in Nuremberg, built by architect Adolf Wolff (1832-1885), was consecrated on September 8, 1874 . In March 1870, the cornerstone of the new building had been laid. The synagogue had 546 numbered male and 389 numbered female seats.
